Does the VS2012 SDK Include the VSIX Project Template?

I installed the VS2012 RC SDK but am not seeing a VSIX Project Template when creating a new project. Am I missing something or is that template in a different SDK or something?

Here is a screenshot:

Downloading the Visual Studio 2012 SDK fixed it for me, the VSIX template is no longer missing under C#

You can get the SDK here:

Also be sure you select ".NET Framework 4.5" from the dropdown menu when looking under C#/VB.NET > Extensibility for the VSIX template, or you wont see it. I learned that thanks to this post:
