SharePoint Service Pack Needs Servicing

Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 (MOSS 2007) just got a service pack and now the service pack needs a service pack.

SP2 works fine, but only for six months. That's when the software is inadvertently set to expire. The good news is a fix is on the way. The better news? Microsoft has about a half a year to get the fix right!

Do you use SharePoint, and if so, for what? Shoot me the deets at dbarney@redmondmag.com.
