VS2005 Delay Rumour FUD
Paul Ballard on TheServerSide.net says SQL Server 2005 Delayed
The implication is that VS2005 will also be delayed because of the close relationship between Yukon and Whidbey.
Frans Bouma is upset about this.
Fabrice claims that everything he needs out of Whidbey has been ready for months and why should he wait for some pissy new database? (ok, I implied the last bit)
Robert McLaws reiterates dependency issues (Yukon, .NET 2.0, Whidbey) and says nothing has really changed since Whidbey was always going to be May-July.
In comments it boils down to a likely scenario of VS2005 being released 3-8 weeks before SQL2005 but probably being available for download from MSDN for some time before.
Hands up everyone who's going to start cutting live code with the VS2005 Beta.
