I be taught one thing more challenging on completely different blogs everyday. It should all the time be stimulating to read content material from other writers and apply somewhat something from their store. I’d want to make use of some with the content material on my blog whether or not you don’t mind. Natually I’ll give you a hyperlink on your net blog. Thanks for sharing. Nice post.

I've been through the new admin interface and while it is generally cleaner, it feels pretty unfinished with fairly glaring visual issues in certain parts. If they need extra time to fix stuff like that then I'm all for it. Unfortunately I need to build/launch a fairly significant new project in WordPress ASAP, and I can't wait for 2.5 now. I'll have to go ahead and do it now then hope everything doesn't fall into a million pieces. :( Probably for the best.

Upgrading to WP2.3 *did* require some work to make themes compatible with the new tag stuff, but WP2.5 does not modify any core feature so that something might break.

It is at it should be in alpha testing. It hasn't yet gone to full beta testing. That's the way things work. That's how it gets better. It now looks like they are going back to the end of the month release as was originally planned, so we should see it in beta soon. I'm very happy with that, and it makes a great "present" for WordCamp Dallas which opens a few days after that date. :D @skeddy:

There is no predicting software progress, really. This became glaringly, foot-tapping obvious, in the earliest days of software, 40 years back. True history. Natural fact. I was not run over by a truck as a kid ... but Mom saw me eying the garage-roof as I asked for Super Man Cape ... and am still trying to compensate for not getting one. Yep, I will have a pillow case over my shoulders, installing WordPress v2.5 at the earliest chance, bugs down my shirt and cobwebs in my hair. ;-) Oh yes, I know the truth.

I for one do NOT like the new admin panel, and I'm sure once 2.5 is out in the wild the feedback will be enourmous. Lorelle, have you even tried the 2.5 beta before the toe tapping? I assure you, your written text would be worth more had you tested it. It’ll be done when it’s done.

I don't count though since I'm an old(er) software tester that is having a ball with WordPress, providing what I hope is fair feedback and generally being foolish. I can tell you that this release is already solid, stable, faster and more efficient from any version I've used before. Hi Lorelle,

I like the new Admin Page even though some people from wordpress forum doesn't like it and they said its too simple. hmm isnt that one of the main goal of Wordpress? to have a simple and easy to use blogging platform? Another thing I like with the next version is how its easier to add embeded videos and audios. ---- I'll wait for few days after its released before I upgrade or til' most of my plug-ins and theme are compatible with the new version.

I run my own web development company,Dot-Chris Development, in which I do updates for all the clients who have purchased a wordpress setup through my services. My plan is to personally install Wordpress 2.5 and test plugins/themes for 2 weeks before releasing this updates to my clients. I guess this delay gives me a extra week to prep for all the testing and sending of notices to clients. Thanks for the updates.
