I’d like to know as well.

There has been no official WordPress.com news for nearly a month. Maybe someone will update us soon.

Yeah, I’ve been wondering that as well. The new stuff looks great.

Roll some dice. Consult a phychic. The software here is a multi-user version of 2.5, and on top of that isn’t even the same as the multi-user version available to the general public, so there will be testing and modifications required that will need testing. I’d say we are looking at probably 3-4 weeks, BUT THAT IS SIMPLY A GUESS.

Actually I recall reading (somewhere) that a lot of under-the-hood functionality of 2.5 is already implemented except all the GUI-Stuff. So I’d guess it’ll take 1-2 weeks.

They have got the WordPress 2.5 login page changed. It’s a start…

@deltafoxtrot

The editor certainly isn’t integrated – or if it is, the new one is as broken as the old one.

Lorelle says it should show up within a week here at dot com, but she is more optimistic than I am.

I can’t wait… the new stuff in WP.ORG looks quite exciting.

I have 3 blogs, wish I had the scratch to register domains and get hosting. would da bomb.

But until then. I’m stuck here. :(

Wow, I knew nothing about this. But followed thesacredpath’s link, and this is exciting!

Lorelle’s pretty connected. If she estimates a week or so, I’d risk a fiver on it.

The Org forums are revealing some issues. Perhaps .com should wait a few weeks. There will be a flood of people hitting these forum if everything goes perfectly, but it will turn into Katrina II if on top of things there are bugs.

Yep, but usually it’s US who are the guinea pigs. Besides, who’d notice more tsuris with all the CP drama here anyway?

And, unless they have fully reviewed and updated all the FAQ’s there will be precious little to point people toward, and volunteers will not have had time to become familiar with things. Not that this has not happened before.

What the hell happened there? Obviously some operator error. I’d blame it on 2.5, but it isn’t here yet.

True enough.

While you’re here, can you take a look at https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic.php?id=25096&replies=10 ?

I’m stumped, because I’ve only had one coffee and it hasn’t reached my brain yet. Why does everyone want to copy the guy who got his blog axed?
