How to use Space Tags Instead of Linked Room Tags. In the past I have used linked architectural views in Revit MEP to show room names, numbers and door tags. In Revit MEP 2011, we can now tag doors directly, allowing us to place door tags by view where we want them. This does not work for room tags.

The "rumor" I just heard from the latest speaker is that Revit 2012 will include the Solar Analysis tool that had previously been an Autodesk Labs plug-in, and then was rolled into Project Vasari late last year with its release. Autodesk is also pushing sustainable design and that they have products that match all levels of design.
