I can’t say that I will be upgrading too soon, because sure enough, they will find something wrong with 2.5 and release 2.5.1… Which then will be when I upgrade it.
Brad,
You are right! I am sure that a new update is coming soon. During testing I found some problems in a few new features of WP 2.5. So, I will wait some more days.
Happy Blogging.
Thanks.
