Upgrade to Wordpress 2.5
I have just upgraded to WP2.5 and bar a few minor mishaps
Maintanence Mode
I used Maintenance Mode in order to have a temporary splash page, this worked fine until all the new files were copied over and then I was unable to gain access to wp admin to upgrade. I renamed the MM plugin, ran the upgrade and all was then aok.
NexGen Gallery
NexGen Gallery required an upgrade which was a nice and simple one click operation as well as a number of other plugins all of which went well. I re-implemented the mods I made in NexGen and another hurdle was jumped.
Plugins
Finally a few of the plugins I had been using would no longer work e.g. advanced-admin-menus
.. apart from that the upgrade was seemless ..
Check back soon for my thoughts on WP2.5 but your comments are also more than welcome
