Does Visual Studio 2010 Beta support .NET 2.0 projects? What about SQL 2005 DBs?

Does Visual Studio 2010 Beta support .NET 2.0 projects?

What about opening SQL 2005 *.ndf files with the new IDE? (meaning mdf files included in the project like App_Data DBs in web applications etc.)

Yes. VS2010 targets .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 (link)

DB projects have been somewhat superceded by the recent GDR R2 Database project release. It's a free download for team editions of Visual Studio 2008

This type of project was originally part of the database edition of Visual Studio.

It has the ability to import a schema from an existing database, perform schema compares, support multiple targets (System Test, UAT, Production, etc), perform TSQL static code analysis, and produce standalone deployment artifacts.
