Mapper fails to load schema

BTS2006 has been fairly disappointing to work with based on the number of bugs in the IDE that I've come across. Here's one of them:

When I add a project reference to a C# class library in my solution which houses some functions I want to use in a scriptoid it seems the BizTalk Mapper (BTS2006) is suddenly unable to load schemas.

"Failed to load the source schema (MySchema). Would you like to select another schema using BizTalk Type Picker?"

If I hit Yes the type picker flashes for a brief moment and I get another error:

"Failed to load Source Schema."

The annoying bit is there is no verbose output/reason provided as to why it was unable to load the schema. The schema assembly is built, loads great. If I remove the project reference it seems to find it.

If I add it as a file reference it works great though. This isn't a great workaround because it means I'm hard coded to a specific build type (Debug versus Release).

Has anyone else seen this before? It would be great to have a product feedback section on Connect similar to the VS product group so we can highlight these issues as we find them.

Thanks,
Colin
