SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2--Now Available

After working on SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 for the past 9 months, I am elated to see it be officially released to the web.  This service pack will not only address the most common bugs reported from customers, but it also introduces some cool new functionality.  I am meeting with Kimberly Tripp today to show her some of the cool scenarios that are now possible with SP2.
