WordPress 2.9 was released yesterday, and with it comes several new features.

For those of you who were wondering whether to upgrade to WordPress 2.8.5, given the relative stability of 2.8.4, wonder no longer: you might as well upgrade to 2.8.6 instead. Yesterday, WordPress 2.8.6 was released, to address a couple of security vulnerabilities found since 2.8.5. Ryan discusses the fixes being provided in 2.8.6: our recommendation [...]

As first mentioned over at Javamancy mini, WordPress 2.8.5 was just released. WordPress 2.8.4 has held steady for more than two months at this point, and it almost seemed as if we, the blogging community, would be able to make it to December and the WordPress 2.9 release. Alas, no… Of course, since this is [...]

Less than two weeks ago, WordPress 2.8.3 was released in order to address a security vulnerability; before that, less than a month ago, WordPress 2.8.2 was released to address some other security issues… Now we have WordPress 2.8.4, which according to Matt is a security release intended primarily to address a password reset vulnerability that [...]

According to Ryan, there were some security vulnerabilities that were uncaught by the previous release (2.8.2), that were noticed and fixed for this latest version. Like the previous version of WordPress, this one is recommended [...]

After several weeks, the long-awaited update to NetBeans 6.7, now with JavaFX support, is finally released to the general public. As you may recall, it was our expert recommendation to NOT uninstall or replace your NetBeans 6.5/6.5.1 IDE if you are actively developing for the JavaFX platform, since it was not available as a feature [...]

As many of you who happen to blog via WordPress are waking up to this, you may have noticed that WordPress 2.8.2 is now available for download/updating. Yep, that’s right: version 2.8.2. For those of you who have just completed your due diligence and your blog upgrades, this may be one of those “Gotcha!” moments [...]

A few days ago, WordPress 2.8.1 was released to the public with surprisingly little fanfare. In fact, for many bloggers, it seemed as if the auto-update message in their WordPress admin consoles did not trigger for a few days after the release. Regardless, this release has a lot of security-related bug fixes, and it is [...]
