    2.3 is here. Time to upgrade.

    Download
    http://wordpress.org/download/

    I have been pretty excited about this version coming out mainly due to the new feature "Canonical URLs." A great addition that I'm sure all us SEO nuts will enjoy.

    From the blog post about the release.

    I'm nervous, hopefully my highly modified site won't go to hell when I upgrade.

    I'm also a little nervous about upgrading. It would be nice if everyone could post their problems and successes with this upgrade right here. Be sure to include the names of themes and other modifications that were used on upgraded blogs.

    I'm especially interested in hearing about anyone who made a lot of use out of UTW...and how things translated over with Wordpress's new tagging abilities.

    I'm not upgrading mine yet. My bigger blogs require a few specific plugins already with known issues, and I don't have other possible workarounds yet. Hopefully the plugins will get upgraded.

    Hey everyone,

    Here is the list of plugins that have been tested for compatibility with Version 2.3.

    http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/Plugin_Compatibility/2.3

    You may want to have a look through the list to make sure any essential plugins that you need are not in the "Non-working plugins, or has issues" section before you upgrade.

    Upgraded 30 minutes after it was released. I love this product for blogging. Wordpress is simple, clean, and easy to customize.
