@ajcvickers The link text for improved tooling section seems wrong
Love the new release notes! It also really neatly solves the problem of understanding what was introduced in which previews, without cluttering the "9.0 what's new" docs with per-preview info that most viewers probably don't need when reading it.
Also love the contributor PR mentions!
These are the release notes for https://github.com/dotnet/efcore/releases/.
The team has been working primarily on EF Core internals, so there are no new big features in EF Core 9 (EF9) Preview 2. However, this means we really need people like you to run your code on these new internals and report back what you find. We want to fix bugs in the new internals as soon as possible in order to have a strong GA release later in the year.
That being said, there are several smaller enhancements included in preview 2, many contributed by our community. For full details, see What's new in EF Core 9. To discuss the EF9 release, go to Try EF Core 9 now! on GitHub.
