I was at the Manchester SBS Group Meeting this evening when Gareth Hall, the Microsoft Windows Server Product Manager announced that SBS 2008 was now at RTM. Sure enough, I had the following email from the Beta Participation :

We are very excited to announce the RTM of Small Business Server 2008 today! This is a huge milestone for the team here, as well as all of you who have played a pivotal role in providing feedback on this product. We on the product team want to say "THANK YOU!" for the hours you’ve spent installing builds, discussing issues on the newsgroups, and filing all of those bugs we love!
