So what will be the release name "MS Sql Server 2008"?
maybe .SQL v3.0 ?

Check this page...

And why do MS let marketers with no knowledge write shit like this...

Manage any type of data including relational data, documents, geographic information and XML

You seem to have forgotten to mention what offended you about that particular sentence.

My guess is that it isn't going to be called sql server 2007.

Umm

If you now RM, then the reason is obvious.

Where RM stands for Reading Minds, presumably?

If you can't be bothered to tell them why you think it's wrong, I'm sure they won't bother taking you seriously.

I was drunk when I wrote that.. Sorry.

>>If you can't be bothered to tell them why you think it's wrong,

Microsoft choose to use the word "Relational".. They should at least understand it. The only people who will get upset about it are the nerds and geeks. Unfortunately for MS, those are the guys who manage VLDB's..

>>I'm sure they won't bother taking you seriously.

That is not my problem Arnold. It is Microsoft's.
