BI Accelerator in Slq Server 2005?

sql server data warehouse:

Has the BI Accelerator tool been dropped from MS or does anyone know of
any plans to "upgrade" this tool to Sql Server 2005? We are working
on a BI project where we would like to use the BI Accelerator to help
generate the schema and data movement and would like to use Reporting
Services as the interface, but was unsure as to the future of this
tool. Any insight would be appreciated.

Most all of the functionality of SSABI has been natively provided by AS2K5.
You can design a cube and then generate the RDBMS from it; or you can start
with a RDBMS and then use intellisense to generate the UDM model.

While the actually implementation is quite different (there is no
spreadsheet to hold the design), the ideas are integrated in AS2K5.
