I&#8217-ll do the upgrading sometime this week &#8212-probably in the early morning (EST). New features:

– Autosave makes sure you never lose a post again.
– Our new tabbed editor allows you to switch between WYSIWYG and code editing instantly while writing a post.
– The lossless XML import and export makes it easy for you to move your content between WordPress blogs.
– Our completely redone visual editor also now includes spell checking.
– New search engine privacy option allows you take you to indicate your blog shouldn’t ping or be indexed by search engines like Google.
– You can set any “page” to be the front page of your site, and put the latest posts somewhere else, making it much easier to use WordPress as a content management system.
– Much more efficient database code, faster than previous versions. Domas Mituzas from MySQL went over all our queries with a fine-toothed comb.
– Links in your blogroll now support sub-categories and you can add categories on the fly.
– Redesigned login screen from the Shuttle project.
– More AJAX to make custom fields, moderation, deletions, and more all faster. My favorite is the comments page, which new lets you approve or unapprove things instantly.
– Pages can now be drafts, or private.
– Our admin has been refreshed to load faster and be more visually consistent.
– The dashboard now instantly and brings RSS feeds asynchronously in the background.
– Comment feeds now include all the comments, not just the last 10.
– Better internationalization and support for right-to-left languages.
– The upload manager lets you easily manage all your uploads pictures, video, and audio.
– A new version of the Akismet plugin is bundled. [As long they don&#8217-t give me the option to de-activate Askimet for the comments, it won&#8217-t be useful for Midas Oracle. I installed another anti-spam plugin.]
