After a hard work fixing the DNN6 optional modules in order to work on SQL Azure, the new accelerator is available at Codeplex with a list of new interesting features.
The best feature, of course, is that allows DNN 6.0 to run on Windows Azure. Do you want to know more? Follow this link to the DNN Azure Accelerator Project:

New features in this release
- Includes a modified DNN6 distribution package with the SQL Azure fixes for non-core modules (see the documentation for a review of them)
- The SMB role will create the VHD dynamically on the first run if the cloud drive does not exists, so there will be no need to upload a huge blob
- Decreased the upload size from 272Mb to 37Mb (deployments will be faster!!)
- After the VHD creation, the SMB role will download from the Storage the distribution package and unzip it to the VHD drive
- You will use the official DNN installation wizard to create and configure the DNN instance on fist run from your browser
- Changed the upload method in order to work on low bandwidth connections (removed Accelcon.exe utility)
- Now you can select the service packages that you want to upload from the accelerator wizard
- You can build your own service packages and put them inside the /packages folder. The wizard will process them for you.
