I have just upgraded my blog to WordPress 2.0.1. 114 bugs have been closed in this release. To summarize:
- You can now specify an upload directory, and whether to use date-based storage or not.
- Caching has been fixed under certain PHP enviroments.
- Permalinks have been fixed for weird enviroments as well.
- XML-RPC uploading works.
- Compatibility with older versions of PHP.
- Several WYSIWYG fixes and cleanups.
- Imports now use much less memory.
- Now works with MySQL 5.0 in strict mode.
On the other hand, I have activated the Akismet Plug-in which comes with WordPress 2.0/2.0.1. It can stop comment spam and trackback spam. I’ve got many spam comments recently and Akismet will definitely help filtering them out.
