Visual Studio Plug-in for BIDS

The guys over at CincySQL forwarded this link to me (thanks Chris & Matt).  This is a plug in for Visual Studio that helps with several tasks for SQL Developers using the Business Intelligence Development Studio (BIDS) that gets installed as part of the client developer tools with SQL Server (both 2005 & 2008).  If you’re a SQL Developer you may want to check it out over on codeplex:

It has some nice plugins for Analysis Services and Integration Services which help in development and deployment.
