February Cumulative Update
The new cumulative update for Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Windows SharePoint Services is available for you to apply to you server farm.
The Microsoft SharePoint Team blog states:
“However, unless customers are affected by the problem described in the KB articles, and already have Dec CU applied, we do not suggest them to apply these new update packages.
The “Uber” package for Feb CU is scheduled to be released in the coming weeks. The update packages released now are a subset of the whole Uber package. These update packages do not include DLC (Document Lifecycle), IFS(InfoPath Forms Services) and XLSRV(Excel Calculation Services) updates. So, if customers apply them directly on a SharePoint installation which does not have Dec CU applied, they will miss the updates of those mentioned components. “
You can download the cumulative updates from here:
- Windows SharePoint Services 3.0 – 961750 Global http://support.microsoft.com/kb/961750

- Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 & Microsoft Search Server 2008 – 91754 Language specific http://support.microsoft.com/kb/961754
If you would like to install the updates on your farm I would recommend the following sequence:
- 961750
- 967703
- 961749
- 961754
Just like the Microsoft SharePoint Team blog stats it is better to wait for the uber package especially when you do not have the December Cumulative update installed.
