A couple of questions for the folk at Microsoft.

At Tech Ed (Amsterdam) Red Gate are claiming that any enquires to Microsoft
regarding database comparison and synchronization tools are passed directly
to them only.
Is this true, does Microsoft have an exclusive deal with them?
If so, where does that leave all the other tool vendors?

Build, Comparison and Synchronization from Source Control = Database change

Hi
Ask the Red Gate guys for this in writing.
No vendor is endorsed in such a manner by Microsoft.
