While no one would have expected it on a weekend, WordPress 2.5 (code named Becker) has been released along with a spanking new WP.org design (the Codex will follow suit shortly). A few changes and feature additions have been polished since my initial WordPress 2.5 Revealed and Compared to 2.3 article was published, but it’s still a rather accurate summary of what previous WordPress users can expect. If you’re so inclined, feel free to download it, but I would definitely recommend installing it on a test server until you get the hang of it and to ensure you actually like it. And finally, make sure to double check your themes and plugins for compatibility.
