It took me less than 5 minutes to upgrade 4 blogs that I’m responsible for on the technical end. If you are a WordPress user who has shell access to your server and you aren’t using subversion to update, then you are just wasting your time.

I have been looking forward to this release for quite some time. The interface is nicer looking on the back end, and threaded comments are available without a plugin. As with any upgrade, please let me know if you experience any issues. I have tested most things on a test site, but there is always the chance something crazy will happen during a release.
