SQL Server 2005 Release date re-confirm

Server Microsoft SQL Server Product Management Manager Tom Rizzo said the company has reconfirmed the SQL Server 2005 release date-"Summer" meaning, and said it will not delay the release of the product again.

Rizzo points out that SQL Server 2005 may have misled a number of users in the "Summer" release. Australians may ask, "Does this mean summer in the United States or in Australia?" To be sure, the company has never changed the internal release date, and the development team is working to ensure that the original release plan is successfully completed.

Microsoft announced last week that Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 are scheduled to be released in the second half of the year. But in fact, Microsoft has been delaying the release of SQL Server 2005, and its final release date is 5 years away from its intended target.
