SQL Server 2008 R2 Data Tier Application Components (DAC)

Thinking this will be the first feature I check out  

I’m finally getting around to installing the SQL Server 2008 R2 August CTP; last weekend I had a chance to check out the TechNet Application and Multi-Server Management with SQL Server 2008 R2 (Level 300) webcast, and found this to be pretty slick.  Since I am, these days, doing a lot SQL development and working with “app dev” types it seems, this new feature should work very well for managing database objects as they relate to the application.  It also looks like it will make things much easier when gathering everything together to roll out to production (logins, connection strings, etc.). I’m in!
