Wordpress 2.9 Beta 2 has just been made available and I’ve rolled it out to this blog. Here’s what we know about it:

WordPress 2.9 is currently in beta and is expected to be ready in several weeks.

Major new features for developers:
- comments meta table
- improved support for custom post types
- register_theme_directory() for additional theme locations
- back-ported JSON encode/decode for both PHP and JavaScript

and for users:
- oEmbed support
- “Trash” for posts, pages and comments
- post thumbnails support
- basic image editor

I’ve deployed it on this blog and it seems to be running really nicely. I look forward to having a play with it and reporting what I find. It beats looking around the web for medical coding training courses doesn’t it?
