Differences between SQL2000 Dev. Edition & SQL2005 Dev. Edition



Hello all,

Can anyone tell me or suggest links about differences of SQL Server
2000 Developer Edition & SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition?
Specifically, I need to know about the licencing policy.

So far I know that SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition is licenced for
develpoment (what else), test and demo use. Each licence entitles only
one developer to use the software on as many systems as necessary and
additional developers can use the software by parchasing additional
licences (some sentences borrowed by microsoft's presentation of the
product).
Does 2000 Edition has more functions than the latest one? In other
words, what the advantages and disadvantages of these 2 Versions?

Thanks in advance?

PS: Shoul I post this here?
