It’s coming…

I watch the trac feed for activity, and it’s been busy the past couple of weeks. This morning changes came in with a note: “Add and delete WP 2.5 files. *DON’T SVN UPDATE!*”
So by that, you can see the WP 2.5 changes are being rolled in. I expect it will be only a couple days or so before a release. Possibly to coincide with single wordpres? Who knows?
I am not a fan of the new admin area, but I am anxious to see how this plays out for MU.

I have to admit that I’m not big on the new admin but that’s because most of our installs are using the Tiger interface and the upgrade will probably break it.

(I’ve already pinged this post on my thoughts on wp 2.5.)
But thinking in WPMU there’s a lot in WP 2.5 that I really don’t want to go five rounds explaining for the users of my wpmu sites.
WP 2.5 is also a very single site, host on your own, release. But it’s probably best to wait and see what donncha can make out of it, before start to complaining.

I do like the more intuitive layout on the 2.5 admin bar in terms of being user friendly. I had to rework the backend layout on my WPMU site because the beta-testers were getting confused about where to go for what - I think for the “blogging lite” users, it makes much more sense for things like “Write Post” and “Change Theme” to be featured over the other settings. And the new dashboard layout is fantastic.
On the other hand, there goes all my hardwork!
