Support for SQL 2005 Beta 2
The SQL team at Microsoft have taken an interesting approach to suppporting SQL 2005 Beta 2 testers.
They have publically published the login credentials to the privatenews.microsoft.com servers for the Sql 2005 Beta 2 groups.
This is really great as now eveyone can ask questions, without worrying about Beta ID's and NDA's. This will also help to keep the regular public newsgroups free(ish) of Beta 2 questions, enabling the MVP's to focus their attention on day-to-day critical problems that users may have with SQL 7 and 2000.

Well done to the team!
