Visual Studio 2005 SDK - August 2006

Via Gabriel Lozano-Moran (full post here):

It hasn't been officially announced yet to my knowledge and the download link is not yet live but in the next couple of days Microsoft will release the Visual Studio 2005 SDK - August 2006 V3 RTM. Playing around with download links I was able to get the download link for the SDK.

1. Navigate to the VSIP Members web site
2. Log on
3. Navigate to the following url: http://affiliate.vsipmembers.com/downloads/69/UserFileDownload.ashx
4. Accept the license agreement

The August 2006 v3 RTM is the next milestone in the VS 2005 SDK. This RTM release contains updated VS Integration sample and documentation content, including updates to the Team System SDK bits to make them more usable ( including whitepapers in the Doc-set, exploding all the sample zips so the files are all installed ), the IronPython end-end integration sample with Web Projects support for both web site and web application projects, updated wizards ( using the new Editor reference code from v2 ) new and Powertoys including the Extensibility Explorer in-memory hierarchy sample that browses installed Packages, Services, ToolWindows, Editors, and Project Systems...

Although not mentioned the recently released CTP of Project "Sandcastle" is part of this SDK as well.

 Downloading and installing now and will follow up if I find any goodies in it (aside from what's mentioned above).
