BIDS Helper on CodePlex.com

So what is so cool about BIDS Helper and why would you want to use it?  Well the main features that you'd like are the options to deploy the MDX script in the calculations tab of the cube, aggregation manager, update estimated counts, column usage reports, expression and configuration highlighter, expression list, and smart diff (all of the features are cool and helpful, but these are some of the key ones).  If you go to the site on CodePlex you can get detailed information about each feature with screenshots.
