It appears that when this note was released, it all of the sudden included support for SQL Server SP3. Why is there no mention of this for people trying to find information about SQL SP3 support???

And why is there no support for Visual Studio 2005 SP1? I can edit the registry and get the install to work, and silent installs skip the pre-requisite check anyway, but really, at least have an option to install even if the pre-req's aren't found. Or is there another update i can't find becuase it isn't acutally mentioned what the update addresses? It's not like SP1 hasn't been out for almost 3 years now!!
