WinFS and WCF

I´d like use winFS as database, creating new custom schemas, then I´d like do services in WCF to save my objects in database (winFS). Have somebody any idea of the architecture of my application with wcf and winfs??

if I create a custom schema "student" inherance of System.Storage.Item, winfs create form the schema a mapping class with my define attributes an the atributtes of System.Storage.Item, then if I´d like use a service of wcf that return a collection of students, how I convert the classes in datacontracts (datamember)???

Thank you for the help.

Hey Javier-

This is an excellent question and a great lot of infrastructure and thoughts
have been invested to enable these scenarios in the later Betas coming your
way. If you would like to put together something similar on Beta1 bits, one
option is to attribute your client classes with WCF datacontract attributes.
This will be no different from the indigo interoperability for any other CLR
class you may define. As we get closer to the Beta2 messaging, we will try
to blog a cleaner interop - stay tuned.

thanks,
Simon

I tryed access to winfs by middle of wcf service, when I host the wcf service in a console application I don´t have any problem, but when I host my wcf service in a IIS, occurred an exception when access to winfs.

Can anybody help me?
thank you

WinFS seems really interesting to me. So, I've searched to get more info on it and came upon this source http://www.ntfs.com/. There is really much useful info there, so if you wish, you might also give it a glance.
