SharePoint Service Pack (SP) 1

If you haven't seen it, Microsoft recently released some information on the upcoming service pack 1 for SharePoint (both WSS and MOSS).  This new service pack not only includes a number of hot fixes for both platforms, but introduces some new functionality.   In addition to Server 2008 support, Microsoft is now officially supporting AJAX-enabled web parts.  They've also included some new STSADM commands (and who doesn't like STSADM).
