In particular:
"After releasing the BigInteger type in earlier CTPs we have received
some good and constructive feedback from customers and partners that
are interested in extended numerical types. We have learned that there
are some potential improvements that we can make to this type to better
serve their needs. As such, we decided to remove BigInteger from the
Beta 1 release of Orcas so that we can address these issues and
concerns."
