Microsoft has released SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 3 Cumulative Update 2, which is Build 10.00.5768.00. I count only 3 fixes in this CU. As I always do, I want to remind everyone that this CU is only for SQL Server 2008 SP2, not for SQL Server 2008 R2.
Here is a link to a list of the SQL Server 2008 builds that were released after SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 2 was released. I am sure there is a similar page for SQL Server 2008 SP3 builds, but I can’t find it right now.
This little build chart might make it a little more clear how the branches and builds relate to each other.
