Not yet. SP2 is currently in beta and tentatively scheduled for release
later this year, although no official release date has yet been announced.

I wouldn't class it still being out in mid-2004 as it was before, a delay.
A delay on what the "rumours" may be.

While the complete SP2 package may not have been released, I currently have
five (5) hotfixes that reference SP2 in their description under the
Add/Remove Program feature. These came from the MS update site either as
part of a critical update or recommended update by MS.

Are these really part of the future SP2 package or is the use of the SP2
descriptor in reference to something else?

They will be incorporated into SP2.

Regard them as 'candidates for SP2' (and they will almost certainly be
in it, but quite possibly in later versions that have been tweaked or
debugged)
