be a beta tester without the word "beta". Expect bugs, like everything else
with 2005 so far.

simply decided that not enough people fully tested the feature during the
beta period so they wanted to extend it's testing time. In reality it now
has more beta testing than other features that were in RTM to begin with.

Database Mirroring was feature complete at RTM and had undergone VERY
rigorous testing over a multi-year time frame. The decision was made to not
expose it in the RTM, because not enough customers had tested it against
their applications to ensure that additional problems wouldn't occur due to
all of the different permutations that are possible. It could be enabled
and used when RTM was released and several hundred customers have continued
to beta test it over the last 6 months. It is being enabled in SP1, because
they now have sufficient customer facing testing completed on it.
This is one of the features that has had more testing time than anything
else in the product and is EXTREMELY stable.
