We have just upgraded to Wordpress 2.5 from 2.1 and I was expecting lots of problems and incompatibilities. Not so.

A sweet conversion and one-click upgrade of plugins made life a lot easier. Although the backend is very different and will take some getting used to, the impression is one of great improvement, even from version 2.3.3. I understand there was no 2.4. Mysterious.

This was undoubtedly the smoothest upgrade I’ve ever experienced. Well done Wordpress and its brilliant community of open source programmers.
