- a list of all the hotfixes that are in SP1. I can't find any other
information about it yet but I'll keep looking. (the Microsoft campus
lost power for several days so I think things are a bit sluggish...)

that list is far from complete. There are 2200+ fixes in this sp, on
that page are just a couple.

Okay, I heard back from the SP1 team about documentation. They said
that other than the existing hotfix page they don't have good public
documentation for it yet, and they're aware that this is a problem,
and they are currently working on publishing something about it.

Hi Lucian,

Okay, I heard back from the SP1 team about documentation. They said
that other than the existing hotfix page they don't have good public
documentation for it yet, and they're aware that this is a problem,
and they are currently working on publishing something about it.

I know, but we've had this conversation before. There was an argument
recently on the Mozilla groups because they'd released an update WITHOUT
any release notes followed by lame excuses about "not wanting to delay
the release". Well the release notes and changelog are PART of the
release. I pointed out that Microsoft always publish the release notes
and changelog with all their updates, and now suddenly, it's not true!

With all the money and resources at Microsoft, it's just not good enough!
