http://asymptomatic.net/2005/11/29/2135/whats-new-in-wordpress-20/ - nils, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2They have revamped the admin interface a lot; added a wysiwyg editor for posts, otherwise the changes are mostly under the hood. No idea why they call this 2.0, it's really not a huge change in my eyes. But I guess 2.0 creates more of a buzz.
- jingles, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1WordPress the best blogging software?
- Croak, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1The upgrade is pretty painless, but be SURE to deactivate all of your plugins before you do the upgrade..some of the old plugins don't play well with 2.0. Upgrade, then start turning on plugins one at a time (and check for plugin updates, most of the popular ones are 2.0 compliant).
And it goes without saying that you should backup your SQL database before you do the upgrade.
Also, they are really XHTML nazis in this code release...stuff like target="blank" for links won't work with the WSIWYG editor, Blogroll links won't open in a new window, stuff like that.
Waay off topic, but the XHTML board makes the stupid arsed assumption that everybody is tabbed browsing (not THIS kid, nor 87% of his blog readers), or they figure if they deliberately make crap as annnoying as possible for IE users everyone will switch to FF..that's not guerilla marketting, that's terrorism marketing. ;) - ekrocker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i've been using moveabletype and i hate it
- estvir, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0any cache links, it seems to be down.

- kuh2, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0not bad not bad ...
- craterburnsu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'll probably leave my blog at the current release, but any new sites i start up i'll be sure to use this version.
- TheOtherGuy, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0EKrocker.. you can use Wordpress 2.0 to import your MT blog via its RSS feed.
I started using wordpress about 6 months ago.. have been using the 2.0 release candidate these last few weeks and its fantastic ++dugg - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Cool.
- ditindia.com, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0really great, i was waiting since long,
- jeff1943, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Old News.. Come on, I mean, I saw this on the official blog two weeks ago.
- lenwood, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'll have to check this out. I've always liked WP. I've worked with it, Nucleus & Drupal. I finally chose b2evolution for my blog because its easy to work with, infinitely customizable and it supports multiple blogs. b2evo isn't as common as some of the others, but I've had great success in getting support through their community. +Digg.
www.b2evolution.net - fyre2012, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0interesting, it still says theres 540 comments....
- echimu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0jingles, well it is the best open source not like MT, which creates problem on server because of cgi load
- chrishill, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0cool, hope migration from 1.0 is reasonably easy
- AttroPheed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Nice :)
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0thats awsome to bad i have been working on my db for the last 3 days trying to get damn mysql to work correctly!
- Nocturnal, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Where can you download the release clients for WP? I can't seem to find it at their main site. Do you have to be an official beta tester? Is it hard to get accepted? Thanks. I'm running the public beta that was posted here a few weeks back.
- gweedo767, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Hurm, digg might wanna fix that ama-dupe thingie that guy just exploited.
- Veloxi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"WordPress the best blogging software?"
It's very good and very popular, but I went with Nucleus, because it's more powerful and more customizable:

You can actually try demos out of all these popular blog software packages at open source CMS:

- IBSwithmyPPTP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0DIGG is the wrong place to comment spam, if digg would just release some logs to the community then they would think twice about there spamming. Digg runs on about 50 servers now and i betcha that guy is behind 1. You think your connection would be hard to block up?
- grayapple, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0kinda nice for non OSXers who just want its GUI...
on another note... ever had the felling some people shouldn't be online if they don't have pubic hair? - Mach5, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Where's Kevin Rose? Here, I'll help you out:
DELETE FROM digg.comments WHERE comment_text LIKE "http://koolaidguy.blogspot.com/%%%%%%" - gweedo767, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0But on topic!

I updated to 2.0RC3 yesterday. I like the new admin area a lot. - egorgry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I take back my original comment. Digg should disable comment and fix that "feature"
- egorgry, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I'm marking spam like a viking over here. It's year end, !no changes! and I got nothing better to do anyway so bring it on.
- Noize, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0trying to make firefox people crash hey?!?!

- TetrisKid, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Has anyone found a decent list of bigfixes and added features?
- tgumbel, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I love the 'ignore users' feature.
- proton, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0"they figure if they deliberately make crap as annnoying as possible for IE users everyone will switch to FF..that's not guerilla marketting, that's terrorism marketing."
No, that's Microsoft School of Marketing. Guess it's been too long for some people to remember. - Scourge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0/me Arms Spam Nuke plugin for wordpress, targets comment spammer
