      That may be true but remember they were all stable until 6.0.0.0 suddenly had problems. It wouldn’t be the first time a MP had an issue that wasn’t picked up in QA. Testing before going live just helps avoid these scenarios.

    I think u can remove SQL 2005 from your post, as that is no longer supported;

    Removed files of SQL 2005 MP from the installer since this MP is no longer supported
