These new XML tools will be especially useful to developers who encounter XML, XSD, and XSLT without necessarily intending to -- in config files, specifications, ASP.NET scripts, RSS feeds, and all sorts of other little niches where one finds XML these days.  The XML tools are available from all the .NET programming languages no matter what primary programming language is used. The free beta Visual Studio 2005 beta 2 includes these new XML tools. All level versions of Visual Studio 2005 including the Visual Studio 2005 Express versions (Web, VB, C#, C++, J#) include the new XML editor. Visual Studio 2005 Professional level and higher has all of these new XML tools including the new XSLT editor/debugger.

Ken Levy shows these tools being used in real development scenarios, so this isn't your typical "gee whiz, look at THIS geeky feature!" demo.

    Thanks XmlTeam!!!
