Upgraded My WordPress Installations to 2.6.1
I finally noticed that Fantastico at HostMonster had the update to WordPress for 2.6.1 - so I updated the two weblogs that I have there and they went off without a hitch. I have to say that it's nice to have Fantastico, as I've done this manually and it's a lot of crummy details, and this way it is one click and about 30 seconds and it's done. Very nice.
Unfortunately, as soon as I get WordPress to 2.6.1 it's telling me that 2.6.2 is out and that I need to upgrade. Tough... I'm going to have to wait for Fantastico and it's upgrade scripts. There's no reason to push the envelope that fast.
Oh... and I'd heard that the remote publishing was going to be turned off by default in 2.6 - but as I looked in my settings for the weblogs, I noticed that the XML-RPC and Atom publishing were turned on by default. So maybe they changed their minds. Would be nice to see they responded to the requests of users like me.
