Visual Studio 2005 SDK V3 (September 2006) Released

http://www.vsipmembers.com/ or from MS Downloads

"The September 2006 v3 RTM is the next milestone in the VS 2005 SDK. The v3 release contains the final release of the DSL Tools v1, contents and samples for Team Foundation Server and Team Test extensibility, IronPython website and web project samples, 5 new Visual Studio PowerToys, managed parser & lexer generator tools (MPPG/MPLEX), updated documentation and many more IDE integration samples. ..."

The DSL Tools RTM and TFS stuff is what draws me to this release...

Update #1 9/15/2006 @ 1:11PM PDT:

"...A couple of other exciting news around this release are:

• Updated License - We have revamped the license and lifted the platform targeting restrictions. This removes a key adoption blocker and enables our partners to build tools inside Visual Studio that target alternative platforms.
• Easy Download - in previous releases, customers needed to register with the VSIP member site before they can download the SDK. We have now made the SDK downloadable without any sort of registration or sign-in, directly from the Microsoft Download Center.

..."

Just saw that you can get this directly from MS Downloads now (I.e. no registration is required anymore)
