The Server CU is released in two different versions. The first version is in In
dividual Packages specific to a particular product like WSS and Project Server.
These are smaller downloads but they do not include language packs or patches f
or other products so patches for those products would have to be downloaded and
installed separately.
The second version is the Server Rollup Packages. This is a set of two rollup p
ackages which contains all the fixes for WSS, Project Server and MOSS. These pa
ckages should be used when MOSS is part of the deployment and/or you have langua
ge packs installed. The Server Rollup Packages are much larger (~200MB each) bu
t they will greatly simplify MOSS patch deployment.
You can read about the fixes included in the February CU from the following arti
