Just got Project Sonar up and running upon a Microsoft SQL Server 2008 data base on the JumpIn! Developer's Camp held by Microsoft in Feusisberg/Switzerland (Zurich area). You may have to alter some of the mapping files to get it running, but it basically works fine.

This ESPACIALLY means that Sonar is runnable on MS SQL Azure so you can actually run Project Sonar IN THE (data base) CLOUD.

I am now working on how to make use of the advanced spatial data functions MS SQL Server 2008 is providing. Hopefully we can do some really fancy stuff with that right on the data base layer. (see http://bit.ly/156wJ4 for details)

That's it for now.
