Dennis-

I pay attention to the development mailing list, the changes that are going into the code, etc. If you want to know what's in the release, you can follow the same steps I do. It's open source! You're empowered!

I don't get how you can know all this if the product doesn't even exist yet. I have always tried to find out about product ahead of time so I can help my clients but most of the time I end up waiting until one of those Dummy books comes out. I,of course, appreciate that you are informing people but what if it doesn't release like you say?

Wow what a lot of great useful information that has made me stop and question if I really want to use WordPress or not on my next blog that I am so anxious to start creating. I have been asking around for some time now, trying to decide which way to go and you have pointed out some things that I had not heard about.
Thanks for giving me a few more things to think about before jumping in and I thank you for your time and sharing important things like this with amateurs like myself in my blogging attempts.
Respectfully yours,
Betsy Buchanan

Anyone knows if the "press-it" feature will return hotlinked images from the websites 'pressed'(annoying and unfair method), or will it use a method of auto-upload (via cURL or something), just like tumblr does sweetly? - Otherwise I'll stick to 2.5 until other major WP updates are up

Tried beta1 and liked it so far. There's still room for improvement though, i.e. navigational functions: Something to easily grab parent and childs of current page, for two tier navigation (top bar and sidebar, as av. in most CMS).

Very very very cool! I love the prepare, love the xml-rpc disabled, LOVE the press-this... Can't wait to upgrade, thanks for the heads-up!

So, when would the hosted WordPress blogs at wordpress.com see this changes?

Wordpress has a very interesting versioning system. From 2.4.x to 2.5 I can understand because 2.5 had a lot of updates and took a long time to come out. But to me, this should really only be a minor upgrade. I don't think theres enough to warrant 2.6

Thanks for lifting the lid. Looks like a lot of effort has gone into Wordpress 2.6 and it looks to be great from here on. Hoping it comes out soon.

Any word on fixes for the image management/upload?

Been very annoying for so many users.

Yep, that's what I said Doug. :)

I just read that the issue with turning off XML-RPC by default has been resolved. It will be turned off by default for new installations - but not upgrades.

Aaron, thanks for the in-depth preview of 2.6. I've been using WordPress 2.5 since it was announced at WordCamp Dallas and it has been a fantastic improvement. You mentioned support for multiple checkbox selection, can you tell us if multiple images inserts will be supported as well. Today it's possible to upload multiple images through the admin, but multiple-insert has been missing and I don't count the gallery insert as a workable option for all situations.

Thanks,

Ah! This clears up a few things. Jonathan and I recorded episode 44 a few days ago and attempted to go over 2.6 based upon the posts available, but they were all mostly bullet lists and didn't go into much detail. As always, your "previews" of upcoming WordPress releases puts things into context and explains them further. Thanks!
