No problem.

Thanks for the document with feature list of dotConnect.
I'll create one for Npgsql which can give more information. Npgsql is
missing a list like that for a long time.

Another missing feature from the list is the design time support. We
are working on that although we don't anything ready yet.

We also don't have something like pgdump or pgloader.

We don't have compact framework support


Those are the biggest features we are lacking. I can see a lot more
compared to dotConnect which we still would need to work on.

As soon as I compile the list I'll let you know.

Thanks for your interest in Npgsql. Your feedback also is very nice so
we can improve even more Npgsql.
