Edit so important it goes up top: Apparently we haven’t been watching trac enough. WPMU 2.7.1-beta1 is out.
New plugin releases for the week:
Posts and Comment growth “This plug-in is a reporting tools for site administrators in WordPress MU. It generates a histrogram graph of posts and comments population in the system. Google Data Visualization API tool is used here to generate the graph.”
Multiple Import “… aggregates multiple blog(s) into one single blog. The imported blogs must be in the same WPMU installation as the destination blog.”
Don’t send mail This doesn’t send mail in WPMU. Not sure exactly why you’d need it but, there you go.
SocialPress Latest Online – first in a series of social networking plugins. “..shows the latest users who are registered and logged in, in a widget or provided extra code. This works on a single website instance on WPMU, mainly the home site.”
And in BuddyPress news, there’s an important announcement in this changeset. It will now work on WPMU 2.71+ only, using the 2.7 MU branch from trac. Also, all files have moved from /mu-plugins/ to /plugins/.
That looks like it’s going to be pretty rocky if you plan on updating.
There’s now a call for some better written install instructions:

tried the comment growth plugin on my wpmu 2.7 and it seemed to work. after logging out and trying to login in I noticed the login page is simply blank. had a look at my php error log file and noticed it was giving conflicts with pluggable…

also it seems it did’t use the correct DB prefix: `[06-Apr-2009 15:03:04] WordPress database error Table ‘web5_db1.wp_mu_growth_pos

can’t believe it! setting.php had whitespace, but I uploaded straight from wordpress.org to my server, unzipped there, so never touched the file itself…
no ftp program involved, using a wordpress plugin for this and just checked the download from wordpress.org: it contains whitespace at the end of setting.php
already opened a thread in their forums to let the author know.
