From Microsoft’s OData/WCF Data Service Team blog:

“This release represents the OData team’s continued commitment to the OData protocol and the ecosystem that has been built around it. We have had requests for assistance in building new client libraries for the OData protocol and we are releasing the source for the .NET Framework and Silverlight client libraries to assist in that process”

This new contribution goes along with the many other OData libraries (like Java, PHP, iPhone) that we’ve released and also strengthens our commitment to enable Data interoperability through the OData protocol.
