The unstable version of WordPress is now showing version “2.7-almost-beta” and you pretty much see most of what it’s going to be. Basically… WordPress 2.7 is killing my plugins!
Absolute Comments probably won’t get updated for 2.7 since most of its feature will be built-in. Almost 3 years ago I wrote the first ever Admin Drop Down Menu plugin and they’ll be now available out of the box (definitely not as cool and usable as mine, but that’s better than nothing)
All in all, this is good news. All the WordPress plugins I wrote were necessary to me because I had the feeling that WordPress was somehow failing at something (comment management or navigation for these particular) and I’m glad to see that the software gets more mature and improves its once shaky area.
For those who have tried and played a bit with the trunk version of WordPress lately, what is your favorite new feature?
