Upgraded to WordPress 2.5

While it might not seem like much, being able to upgrade WordPress from 2.3.3 to 2.5 was nice to get done today. It takes a little longer for Fantastico at HostMonster to get the updates, but they work like a charm, and I haven't lost a thing. Can't beat that. Unfortunately, there's already 2.5.1 out, and so I'm still behind. Not to worry, it'll catch up... and if the Google Summer of Code is right, we'll get caching in the default WordPress which would be really nice because the existing caching schemes make it seem a little non-standard.

I'm not about to get Slashdotted anytime soon, so I'm safe. When it's built into the WordPress release, I'll get it. But I do with they had better facilities for Privacy. There's really only the ability to mask out the search engines. I'd like to be able to work on an opt-in policy where I had to give people accounts on the install and then they could read it. That would be nice.
