WordPress 2.9.1
After over a million downloads of WordPress 2.9 and lots of feedback from all of you, WP Team's releasing WordPress 2.9.1. This release addresses a handful of minor issues as well as a rather annoying problem where scheduled posts and pingbacks are not processed correctly due to incompatibilities with some hosts. If any of these issues affect you, give 2.9.1 a try. Download 2.9.1 or upgrade automatically from the Tools->Upgrade menu in your blog’s admin area.

WordPress 2.9 beta 2
Version beta-2 of WordPress 2.9 is ready for your testing pleasure.
You can download it or use the WordPress Beta Tester plugin and auto-upgrade a test installation.
See all changes since beta 1.
A little support.
Thanksgiving was last week, and I thought about doing a post to thank the people who contribute to WordPress core, since this is a group of people I’m thankful for on a daily basis. I started a draft, and then realized that with 2.9 in beta, we’ll have a release announcement sometime in the next few weeks (barring unforeseen complications, etc), and all the core contributors will be thanked then. Though I think it’s worth giving thanks every day for the people who make WordPress possible, I don’t like to clutter up anyone’s feed readers with repetitive posts, so I decided to wait until today for my post, and to focus solely on the other group I’d planned to include: support forum volunteers.
New support forum moderators have been chosen.
