Upgraded this site to Wordpress 2.5

So I upgraded the blog to WordPress 2.5 today. Went fast and easy (too easy.) I also moved our MYSQL to the central hosted service. That was easy too.

But we have a problem with our HTML authentication plugin. The guy who wrote it, Daniel Westermann-Clark, down at University of Florida is aware of the problem, but hasn’t had the time to fix it yet. Drats.

    I’ve also been waiting for the auth plugin update. Looks like he’s got it done. If I’m reading this right, it doesn’t work with 2.5, but will work when 2.51 is released (not sure when that will be).

    With 2.5.1, actually. Author says you can get aloft now by pulling a version of WordPress from subversion.
