Report Model Builder in SQL Server 2005 CTP

Will the model builder have the ability to build models against an Oracle
database? I may be missing something in the CTP but it looks like I can only
make a SQL Server database data source.Directly supported are:
- Analysis Services 2005 data sources
- SQL Server 2000 and 2005 relational data sources
At this point, other data sources (e.g. Oracle) can only be accessed through
the linked server functionality of SQL Server. We are aware that this
approach has restrictions and drawbacks and we are looking into directly
supported additional data sources natively in future releases.
