WordPress announced today the release of the next version of their popular blogging software - WordPress 1.5.1 for immediate free download.

According to the dev blog, over 170 bugs were squashed.

Podz has posted easy to follow upgrade instructions here - great work Podz and the rest of the dev team.

I’ll be upgrading tomorrow morning and I’ll post any problems/issues I come accross.

UPDATE: reading the comments on the upgrade instructions, it seems that the plugins BAStats and Entity2NCR cause problems and need to be disabled before upgrading.
