Matt on Not-WordPress

Stuff and things.

Getting Very Close

with 16 comments

As you can see in our bug tracker, we’re getting very close to the next release of WordPress. Once we iron out one or two more things we’re going to release a beta for wider testing.

Users of WordPress.com should see the fixes and enhancements starting sometime tonight! Make sure to use the feedback form if you have any thoughts.

  4. [...] Know what would be cool? Matt points to the Trac tracker on how close WP 1.6 is to being ready for a beta, and I wonder, “Hmmm … why can’t I have a feed of this that gives me overall stats and maybe links to the open bugs?” Might also be cool for future releases for this to be in the Dashboard as a progress bar-type thing. [...]

  5. [...] Yes, it’s coming.  I’ve seen a lot of improvement and bug squashes over the past week.  There was over 100 taken care of during the bug hunt last week. [...]

  6. [...] Maybe things will improve with the planned upgrade to WordPress.com tonight…   [...]

  7. [...] A post made this morning by Matt “(Photomatt|WordPress)? Mullenweg will be an excellent piece of news for quite a lot of us. [...]

  8. Sweet, I’ll actually upgrade to the beta like I did before.

  14. Upgraded to WordPress 2.0 Beta 1

    Well the official beta for WordPress is out. If you are somewhat brave load it up, if not, I would wait until a beta 2 or final release. I haven’t had any major problems with the nightly builds, so it is pretty stable.

  15. [...] Matt, the developer of WordPress said that they’re getting very close to the next release of WordPress. Once they iron out one or two more things they’re going to release a beta for wider testing. This is a Christmas gift for everyone. Horay…..! November 21st 2005 Posted to Blog, WordPress [...]

  16. Matt, hmm… seems to be a bit of confusion here.
    Do we have a ver 1.6 or 2.0 coming?
    What’s the plan?

    Excellent work Matt and all!
