About SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP

All,

I downloaded SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP (v9.00.1399) dated 11/11/05. May I know if this is the latest stable build of the application to be used for SQL Server 2005 Express (final release version)?

Why it is CTP?
Thanks,
WilliamThe November 11 CTP is the latest stable build.

Management Studio Express is a new product that hasn't had all the testing that SQL Server 2005 Management Studio has had and isn't quite ready to be released. The CTP lets a broad range of users try the product out while we can still easily fix any problems that are found.

Also, the feature set for Management Studio Express is not yet final, so we want to use the CTP to gather feedback on how well the current set of features work for people. Depending on what feedback we get, we can still make feature set changes in a pre-release product.
