Hallelujah and pass the Service Pack
I know I am late to the blog but it has been revealed that SQL Server 2005 will be getting a service pack 3! How a product that had already reached 7 cumulative updates could expect to get away without one beats me.
What I do worry about is how many of the issues that are in the cumulative updates and the forthcoming SP have been wrapped into SQL 2008 and how long that product will be held up by marketing before it gets the updates?
