WordPress 2.7 – “Coltrane” (named for John Coltrane) was released today and I have just finished a 25 minutes (including this post :) smooth upgrade using the Wordpress Automatic Upgrade plugin.
Coltrane seems to have a very cool and much faster new inteface (150 people contribution) and I didn’t have any issues until now…
Much more details (+ visual introduction) on the WordPress.org blog.
Enjoy.

Just the post I was waiting for to upgrade.
BTW, what took 25 minutes? Mine took 6 minutes, even though I cheated a bit, not counting any time getting used to the new platform or making sure my plugins work (there’s a nag message that Simple Tagging won’t work without some attention)

I wanted to say that it was network latency of the backup files that slowed me down but it seems like I am just getting too old for this… :)

So far I find the upgrade very worthwhile. Some tasks I just didn’t know how to do in 2.6 are effortless in 2.7.
