The extensibility interfaces where marked internal and this extensibility is officially not supported. 2) DB_Linq is basically a re-implementation of the System.Data.Linq namespace. 3) I do not like how DB_Linq is implemented. DB_Linq uses symbolic redefinition which points the classes at vendor specific implementations to abstract the database rather than a provider or factory model. 4) Getting the data out of the DB into entities will be fairly straight forward. System.Data.SQLite defines a pretty reasonable set of sqlite -> .net mappings. The .net -> sqlite mapping is _much_ harder.
