Database Drivers not provided by Microsoft

I wanted save some people some time looking for providers for their non-Microsoft databases to use with .NET.  Please keep in mine I have not tried or used all of these providers / tools but have found them from searching and asking around. Based on some of the feed back and comments I added a few others.

Npgsql is de facto the ADO.NET provider. Performance and stability seems alright.

PostgreSQLDirect .NET is a commercial provider, and its supposed to out-perform Npgsql while providing more features.

In any case, the .NET data provider is available for download, as well as a DDEX provider.
