As a long time WordPress user, I am happy to see the release of version 2.7.

The first thing you’ll notice about 2.7 is its new interface. From the top down, we’ve listened to your feedback and thought deeply about the design and the result is a WordPress that’s just plain faster. Nearly every task you do on your blog will take fewer clicks and be faster in 2.7 than it did in a previous version. (Download it now, or read on for more.)

It took me a little getting used to, but the interface is so slick, and the built-in one-click upgrade makes it worth the upgrade all by itself.

I've been using the release candidate so I was able to upgrade today with a simple click. Be happy to know this is the last painful WordPress upgrade (if you could call any WordPress upgrade painful) you'll have to deal with.

1. I tend to tread carefully with major new releases of Wordpress. It can often render certain plug-ins unusable and start to mess with your stats. I think I'll hand fire until all the bugs have been found – there are always some.
