Visual Studio .Net Integration SDK

I have read that this SDK is now released for free use. Anyone has the link to its homepage or site for download? Best regards, Paul. Jesus Christ is LOVE! Please tell somebody.

It's free for Enterprise MSDN customers, not 'free' for anyone who wants to poke around with it (unfortunately). However, there is so much that can be done to VS.NET's design-time environment that the VSIP SDK is really only necessary for huge and vastly complex integration projects (like ActiveState's Perl.NET). Custom ControlDesigners, RootDesigners, CodeDomSerializers, ExtenderProviders, etc... really gives the developer alot of power to reinvent the design-time process to fit whatever specialized components they are developing. We're building tons of new design-time code at my company, and I don't think we're going to need the VSIP SDK to get what we want. The publicly available extensibility built into VS.NET is enough. -- Russell Morris "WOW! Chocolate - half price!" - Homer Simpson, while in the land of chocolate.

Well, we are on Architect version, so where can I find it? I am not doing any integration work now, but wish to know if the news and true and also play with the SDK - learning. Best regards, Paul. Jesus Christ is LOVE! Please tell somebody.
