BizTalk 2004 certification released?

The list of exams in Microsoft certification website includes the following test for BizTalk 2004:
Exam 74-135: Developing E-Business Solutions Using Microsoft BizTalk Server 2004

However as of 4/19 there is no link to the exam overview page, but if you replace the exam number in the url for any other test page, i.e. http://www.microsoft.com/learning/exams/74-135.asp it shows that this test has been available since Jan 17, 2005. It may be just a mistake on the site, anyway I've been looking forward for this exam to be released and I'm planning on taking it sometime soon.

My first post

This is my first blog and my first post. I'm a technologist, so I'll try to keep the main posts to my blog technology-related. My expertise is primarily in .NET and J2EE, but I consider my self to be technology agnostic, so I'm particularly interested in technologies that make heterogeneous technologies work together, such as Web Services.
