    I haven’t played around with the public 2.5 Wordpress install yet, is it going to break everyone’s plugins again like 2.3 did?

    There is a rough draft changelog document at http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_2.5

    It looks like the majority of changes are in the admin functions, which would most likely effect and admin plugins. Changes to wordpress functions and calls would effect plugins that work with those functions but I can’t say for sure based on the documentation that is out there what it will break and what it won’t. The last upgrade brought a doc that showed what plugins would work with the new version and what wouldn’t, so I hope there is a compilation like that again.

    Hey there. I had killed juice a couple of months back, due to your comments about it. And yea, it seemed buggy. And then I didn’t find the show, as I kept looking for alternategeek. But yea, now I’ve found you. - Also just went through KC, on my way down to TX. Next time, I’ll hong my air horn. :)
