Hello,

Does anyone knows what is the release date of SQL Server 2008?

Thank you,
Miguel

When it's ready. And yes I'm being serious.

They have pressure to release by the end of August, as that is when their
TPC benchmark expires. But other than that, watch the more popular blogs
and the official SQL Server site, like the rest of us are doing. When the
date is publicly announced, all of these sites will pick up on it pretty
quickly.

If you knew the release date was, say, August 18th vs. August 21st, would
that change anything for you? Just curious why the exact date is so
important and why people think that others might have inside information
about something that hasn't yet been decided, or at least the decision has
not been made public (and if it had, you would have just as much visibility
into it as the rest of us). And if we did have inside information, it would
likely be because we signed an agreement that we would not disclose it
publicly.

6-8 weeks is what I was told by someone who usually knows.
