Cool — did you find any problems? There seem to be some annoying bugs in 2.6. I’ve stuck with 2.5.1 for now and just yesterday released my new portfolio site powered using it:

Pretty happy with how it turned out. :-)

Hi Matt,

We are working on a couple of 2.6 blogs. Clients are populating them at the moment.

They are “under construction” and will be released in the next few weeks.

Watch this space!

Hi Nixon McInnes! It’s been a while.

I’m just wondering if you guys are still using WordPress to deploy sites and if you’ve given 2.6 a spin at all?

And nope, I’m not bothering with 2.5.1 — any real improvements won’t be coming for at least another 3 months, so in the mean time I’m looking at alternatives.

It’s not just the problems with the software that have put me off, it’s the overall attitude coming out of the WordPress camp that has left me dismayed.

See, this is the problem when open source ends up with million dollar backing… the users, as always, get shafted.

Telmo, I’m curious if you’ve had much experience with 2.5 yet? If so, what are your experiences with it?

The post text editor in 2.5 sucks compared to 2.3, which is not saying much. I need to find another alternative.

And WordPress 2.5.1 is out. Has anyone upgraded?
