What you should know before installing Microsoft WCF Data Services March 2011 CTP 2 for .NET Framework 4 and Silverlight 4:

• The Microsoft WCF Data Services March 2011 CTP 2 for .NET Framework 4 and Silverlight 4 is a pre-release version of WCF Data Services. While this release is a high-quality stable release, it is not considered a finished product. It is recommended that you do not install this CTP on your primary PC.
• If you are intending to use the WCF Data Services client library for Microsoft Silverlight 4 included in this CTP, install the Microsoft Silverlight Tools for Visual Studio 2010 before installing this CTP (available at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/details.aspx?FamilyID=b3deb194-ca86-4fb6-a716-b67c2604a139&displayLang=en).
• Before running the setup, please make sure Visual Studio is closed.
• This installer includes March 2011 CTP 2 assemblies for both the .NET Framework 4 and Silverlight 4.
• This is a side by side release with the assemblies shipped with the .NET Framework 4 and Silverlight 4.
• For this CTP, the assemblies have been renamed from System to Microsoft. For example, System.Data.Services.dll is included with the .NET Framework 4. The corresponding assembly in this CTP has been renamed to Microsoft.Data.Services.dll
• If Visual Studio 2010 is installed, the WCF Data Services integration with Visual Studio will automatically be updated. This means that "Add Service Reference" will generate code based on the March 2011 CTP 2 assemblies when using either the .NET Framework 4 or Silverlight 4.
• In Visual Studio, when adding an assembly reference, make sure to navigate to the WCF Data Services March 2011 CTP 2 install location.
