I usually don’t post about a Cumulative Update being released but this time I went over the list of fixes and noted some as being interesting to keep in mind. So this post is more a "reminder to self" note than anything else.
Since a couple of weeks, CU7 for SQL Server 2008 SP1 is available for request on this Microsoft Support page.
