Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1

See Scott Wiltamuth’s blog for some early information about a planned Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack in the first half of 2006:

Servicing plans for VS 2003 and VS 2005

We've seen some questions today in blogs and forums about our servicing plans for VS 2003 and VS 2005, and I thought it would be a good idea to communicate them here. We use "hot fixes" to address time-critical issues, and periodically release service packs that have multiple fixes. By having the combination of these methods, we hope to provide timely fixes for critical issues and also make it easy for customers to deploy fixes broadly.
