An update on recent SQL Server 2005 builds

I'm still waiting for the latest GDR / QFE that is going to clean up (no pun intended) all the maintenance plan cleanup issues that were borne out of SP2 and the followup fixes. In the meantime, I've collected a list of build #s and their associated KBs that have happened since, well, the last time I did this.
