Earlier today the WordPress development team released two security-related distributions available for both users of the main 2.2 branch and the legacy 2.0 branch of WordPress.
According to the official release notes:
As these releases include only security and minor bugfixes they should not cause any plugin or theme compatibility issues, so you have no good excuse not to upgrade.
I already did the upgrade earlier this morning for Geek With Laptop and of course there wasn’t any issues or burps. It went smooth as silk.
Heads up for the people who I maintain WordPress installs for, you’ve also been upgraded to the most current and stable release for the branch your sites are running.
Everyone else who is running WordPress for blogs and regular websites, I highly recommend that you go download the latest release.
It only takes a moment and the upgrade process is really easy.
If you need help, let me know and I’d be happy to assist you in getting your site or blog running the latest and greatest version of WordPress.
