Top 10 Questions Related to Data Answered by Microsoft

My colleague and Microsoft MVP Anoop shared an interesting tweet yesterday about the Top 10 Questions Related to Data Answered by Microsoft

The questions answered are the following:

1. So what happened to “Oslo”?
2. Why did you rename ADO.NET Data Services to WCF Data Services?
3. Where does Microsoft stand on LINQ to SQL?
4. What's happening to the "M" language? How do “M” and the Entity Data Model relate to each other? Which do I choose?
5. When does a developer use “M” vs. T-SQL? Should I use “M” rather than T-SQL to define the shape of my data?
6. What's New in ADO.NET Entity Framework 4 and WCF Data Services 4?
7. What is "Quadrant" and what does it do for me?
8. When will the SQL Server Modeling CTP ship?
