Well, it has been several weeks already since WordPress 2.6 came out and so far I haven’t seen any major problems pop up.   I think this helps show just how good of a job the WordPress team and other testers have been doing prior to each release.

Of course that doesn’t mean that there are a few minor bugs or complications that need worked out.   Today I noticed a post by the WordPress team that WordPress 2.6.1 is now in the Beta 1 phase, which means it should be live here in the near future.  You can check out the close to 50 fixes here.

The good news is that this upgrade will be optional, so people that aren’t having any problems or that have a large number of WordPress installations do not have to upgrade if they don’t want to.

    One thing I have found since wp 2.6 is that the old issues I used to have putting HTML or Javascript code into a post in the HTML editor have been solved. It used to change things in the code and cause problems unless I published the post and never went back. Hopefully this is a fix that will stay.
