The first beta release has been out and reading the development blog it looks like the WordPress 3.0 beta 2 is almost ready. I will start playing with it as soon as I see the release. I have been very pleased with the first beta. All of my plugins so far have been compliant and that is something that has not happened in quite a while.

It will be a bit different and the new default theme has some nice customization features. You will be able to change the backgrounds and much more. It is definitely a much more professional theme.

A far cry and much easier to customize than the venerable blue Kubrick default theme.

Add in custom menus and a lot more features and this will be a big change from the WordPress you are used to. If you are using WordPress for a CMS for your site you will really like these changes.

Add in the new multi user functions and this will be a big jump forward in usability and much easier to adapt for new uses.

So it should be quite a change coming and barring any problems should be quite soon. As we all know that is always subject to change ;) .

Keep updated with the latest information
