RS enhancements planned for VS 2005?

I just downloaded SQL Server 2005 Beta 2 and looked over the RS
functionality. Though the report designer is available from the Business
Intelligence Development Studio rather than VS.Net, I can't find any
significant enhancements in this rev of RS over the SQL 2000 SP 1 (i.e.
support for rich text in text boxes, XML data source support, custom control
support, improved wizards, etc.).
Is this correct? Are there enhancements to RS planned before final release?
When will the RS release plan for SQL 2005 be announced? Will Beta 3 be
feature-complete?
Thanks.
Jeff DavisRS in SQL 2005 Beta 2 is primarily a port of RS2K SP1.
All new reporting services feature work is being done in a separate code
branch and will be merged in for Beta 3.
If you have additional questions and comments on SQL 2005 Beta 2, your best
source of information is the beta newsgroups rather than here.
