    WP automatic upgrade isn't even compatible yet. I'd seriously considering waiting a few weeks to upgrade to this!

    No use of that plugin, automatic upgrade is already inbuilt in this!

    I just upgraded to 2.7 and I've gotta say -- IT'S TOTALLY DIFFERENT THAN PREVIOUS VERSIONS. I need some time to get accustomed to the new interface...
