Yes. The database abstraction layer is working. A bug in the MS SQL driver prevents viewing of pages 2-x of some special pages (like "Most Wanted Templates", etc.), but page 1 of each of those comes up fine. The problem is that scrollable cursors are being demoted to forward-only cursors for queries using CTEs. I would expect this to change in a future release of the drivers or I will have to come up with a workaround. The other notable issue is that pages for oddball characters like "fleur-de-lis" and "happy face" (single character page names) get confused with one another. I haven't had the spare time to figure out ways to address these yet. I have about a six-week period in which I have another project that is consuming all of my time for what would otherwise be working on the Azure code.

Hi DJ and hi everybody!
Thanks for the warm welcome :), and DJ thanks for your hints/questions concerning SVN. I am quite busy at the moment so I did not set up my SVN client (Tortoise) for the MW repo yet. But I hope to get it done next week.
Afterwards I will start adding some of the announced extensions. The Azure stuff is already in SVN. Markus committed it.
I am very excited about your Azure extensions. You said you had everything working with MW 1.18 except the media storage? As far as I know you work on the database abstraction layer for Azure SQL. Is that right? So with the file backend we should have a complete "Azure bundle", shouldn't we?

I will be trying again tonight. I got some hints from Ben Lobaugh. It looks like the problem I've been having is that I was using the host name in conjunction with my svn+ssh connection attempt, when I should have been using the name of my PuTTY session.

Welcome, Robert! You and I should be crossing paths. I have everything working through version 1.18 on Windows Azure, except for the media storage. Right this moment I am trying to figure out how to get my code committed, but I have been struggling with setting up the Subversion access from my Windows 7 box. Any hints or pointers on how to set things up may help me transition from a potential to an actual contributer.
So, what are you trying to do? The cli or soething else?, did you read [1]? You will need to use plink on windows to make the ssh tunnel, pageant is recommended but not required (unless it's a plink with no console?).
Take a look at [2].
