re: SQL Server 2005 SP2 CTP Download working link

Hi Meville,

What are your thoughts on SP2 having enhancements in it along with the bug fixes and security updates etc?

Doesnt this make testing prior to deployment harder and therefore take longer?

Cant we get enhancement packs seperately (like the Reporting Services release for SQL 2000) and keep the SP's purely targetted at fixes for known issues?

What if the enhancements are buggy, some sites may need to remove that but would then be faced with taking off a service pack too ...

cheers

Jonathan
