WordPress 2.5 is out
WordPress, one of the most popular blogging platforms ever just released their latest version: 2.5. The release promises a host of new features and improvements.
Largely the improvements are on the Administration side, where the complete UI has been changed to look much fresher. There has been a complete reorganization of the navigation and grouping of functions. Of course, like anything else, there has been a mixed response from early adopters.
Here are a few reviews from around the web: Habitually Good WordPress Review; a review from Socialized Software; and one from Astheria.
As for the bad reviews, most people are complaining of broken plugins or widgets. That is not a problem if you are just installing a new setup. We recommend that you do a test run on a separate server before installing on your main if you are upgrading.
