Has anyone done a fairly wide rollout of SQL Server 2008 yet? Has anyone done a limited rollout?

Have you run into any big issues with it yet? Does it seem fairly stable and mature compared to 2005?

We are looking at upgrading a number of applications from 2000, and I would prefer to go directly to 2008 instead of 2005 if there are no major issues.

We have done a few..and no issues so far. yes going to 2008 is a better option than 2005 if you are at 2000.

How long have you been running 2008 live in production?
