I am a little confused by the RTM release of VS2008. I cant find a copy of the Team Explorer RTM or wither it is bundled with Team Suit. This would be a problem if I uninstalled everything only to find that I can’t get my source control…

Does anyone know if Team Suit is bundled with VS2008 Team Suit?

When I was on MSDN earlier there was only one download and that was Visual Studio 2008 Team Suit. Now that have added more downloads, and the site is dead again :)

All the flavours are here, but no Team Explorer? Do I need to download Team Foundation Server just to get Team Explorer? Granted I need it anyway as I have a deployed instance of TFS Beta 2, but not at home :)

And where is the .NET 3.5 redistributable… I have applications that are hot to trot but I can’t roll out on Beta 2.

Ah well, I will stow my impatience and wait…
