Enterprise library with linq-to-sql?

Question

I wanted to get any feedback (put out a feeler) for how the enterprise library plays with linq-to-sql generated classes. I was considering using the validation handler to provide validation logic/display to the UI level. I am considering the caching handler, validation, and authorization handlers primarily.

Take a look at my articles about integrating Enterprise Library Validation Application Block with LINQ to SQL. In this series I explain how to effectively use the VAB with LINQ to SQL:

1. Part 1: Basic Integration
2. Part 2: Using context within custom validators
3. Part 3: The complexity of custom validators
4. Part 4: Using Metadata to Automate Validations
