Changing SQL Server everywhere name

I learned from Steve Lasker's blog that since the development team released SQL Server everywhere June CTP, I have received a lot of feedback about its name that may cause confusion with other SQL Server products. Therefore, they decidedSQL Server everywhereRenamedSQL Server compact Edition. This name is abbreviated and changed back to the original one.SQL Server CEOh, the name isSqlce.

Replace SQL Server compact edition with the name to make its role in the SQL Server family clearer. To differentiate the differences between SQL Server everywhere (ssev) and SQL Server Express (SSE), Steve Lasker has done a lot of work before. He wrote a White Paper, which not only pointed out the differences between ssev and SSE in features, but also showed the differences in database programming models.

Changing a new name for a product is not easy. Next, the development team will update many documents, White Papers, localization resources in more than 20 languages, and development environments ....... However, you don't have to worry that the Assembly file name and namespace remain unchanged.

In addition, Steve Lasker also compiled some FAQs to answer the recent developments in SQL Server compact edition and the work to be done. As there are many FAQ content, I will not translate them here. If you have any questions, please come and discuss them here.
