It is included in SQL Server, so my guess would be they have decided users
have to pay for it...

know I was when I
heard about it in Jim Duffy's session at Advisor DevCon.
Also, I do not have to worry about the user killing a task out of the
Windows Task
Scheduler, and it is one more thing to worry about when deploying a
vertical market
application, and even a custom app. I know the user can shut down SQL
Server Agent, but
when the job does not complete successfully I can have it email me. Now
it just does not
run. A poor design decision by Microsoft in my opinion.
Certainly most would agree with you. Wonder why they decided to leave it
out????? Perhaps they'll see the error of their ways and make the right
decision?
