So WordPress 2.8 has been released and from playing around with the development versions it really seems pretty awesome. I did notice that they deprecated the author functions which is a bit of a problem as I’ve used those function in my themes (the Author Info page, Bio blocks, etc). So that means I need to do some upgrading for my themes. I’m not sure of the extent of what needs to be done yet but will get going on those upgrades asap.
As far as I can tell, besides that author thing, the themes do work in 2.8 so keep that in mind if you upgrade to 2.8. I’ll keep everyone updated on my progress with the upgrades so keep checking back here.
