Do you guys like our new weekly recap?
Interesting, but I visit this website on each new post so it’s duplicated news for me, I think you should hear from people who doesn’t came here all the time! :P
New WYSIWYG comment editor is very cool also! Perhaps you could add smilies?? :)
Great week!
Some people like to check news weekly or so, so good for catching up.
Will think about smilies, although text based ones are cool as well :-)
Vygantas,
Do you have any plans of changing the sites layout in the near future? I ask because as of now, it is a little cluttered.
Are you able to include a login page that will show post count etc?
We really need a ‘Older news’ link towards the bottom rather than the archive thing.

Original
Oh, missed that one.
I am considering design upgrade but only after WP 3.0.5 or so, glad I never upgraded to 2.9.x branch, thousands of sites are being hacked now all over the internet, no patch yet :-)

Firefox for Windows x64 nightly builds are available for testing since yesterday.
Yes very cool
Are you using the ‘Suggest An article’ Link to inform Vygantas?
Yes, I was planning to publish this one separately.
Ah, no. I didn’t see it as being such big news as to require its own post…
