Hi Cathy, I upgraded and so far so good. I use the Thesis Theme so the WP Theme is barely of interest.

I don’t like the full screen mode – want all those editing buttons where I can see them. Suspect others will like it and it’s nice to have options.

Was a bit startled by the new look, but so far so good.

You’ve got such a great voice!

Hi Anne: I’m not sure if I am going to like the “no distraction” writing screen. I kind of like doing my headings and other formatting as I go along. But, hey, another new toy.

Thanks for the kudos on my voice-1st time I ever heard that! LOL! 😀

P.S. I have Thesis on my personal blog and had to upgrade to a new version. Before I did, the formatting was pretty wonky (technical term). 😉

Thanks for stopping by, Anne!

I think we will hold off for a while. As you stated it looks more of a cosmetic upgrade than functional changes or security issue fixes.

Danny: They did say there were 400 changes. I would imagine some are security-related. You can read the WordPress release about it to find out more.

Thanks for stopping by.
