Issues with the latest .NET - pre-release build v2.0.50727 (Nullable.Wrap and INullableValue)

I have the latest pre-release build of .NET 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005 and cannot compile our program which was developed with the 'April Beta' !

What happend with:

Nullable.Wrap and the INullableValue the interface

I need this as this is the only workaround to the other design flaw/bug in .NET 2.0 with Nullable types (see http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback/viewfeedback.aspx feedbackid=FDBK27024 )

Thank You.

    It's not fixed.
    Read http://lab.msdn.microsoft.com/productfeedback/viewfeedback.aspx feedbackid=FDBK19166 where the original issue refers to this one.
    In this one you guys claim that this is a 'By Design' but really no one think it is since we have a major issue with ChangeType and Convert to and from Nullable types.
    What makes it really tragic is that now you took out from the framework the only possible workaround posted by a Microsoft employee in FDBK19166.

    Please, please help.

    Thanks,

    We actually did a major overhaul of Nullable<T> since April -- which likely fixed the problem that you were seeing alltogether.  Check out http://blogs.msdn.com/somasegar/archive/2005/08/11/450640.aspx for some more details on the change to Nullable.
