WordPress 2.5 RC2 Released, along with a Screencast
Just as the WordPress community is starting to get comfortable with the first release candidate of WP 2.5, WordPress RC2 has arrived.
Another great treat is the video walkthrough of what you can do with the latest WordPress version, which focuses on the dashboard, the write post page, and the gallery feature. See the screencast for yourself: flash movie or AVI.
The post also touches briefly on theme and plugin compatibility: no known problems for existing themes, though you might want to update them for cool new features like Gravatars. Expectedly, several plugins will need updating. Visit the 2.5 Plugin Compatibility page for more information.
Finally with regards to theme and plugin compatibility, we’ve had no reports of any broken themes in this upgrade, which makes sense because we didn’t really change anything core about themes, just added new optional capabilities like Gravatars. Plugins that work with the admin may require updating to take advantage of the new, cleaner UI in WordPress 2.5.
