Wordpress 2.3 has been out for a while. Here’s the good:

• Tag unions and intersections rule! Film reviews: http://james.lab6.com/topics/films+reviews
• It’s Wordpress. It’s good by default.

And the bad:

• Tagging support is extremely limited. There is no has_tag() function for writing cool backend things - a fact I discovered after converting all my categories to tags. There is no way to convert a tag back into a category, and no way to edit or delete a tag. I also didn’t do a backup immediately before upgrade (note: always do a backup before upgrading). Thankfully, Dreamhost’s database restore feature rocks, and since my last post on them ended ambiguously, let me say that I now think they rock both completely and consistently, in a state of supra-Gödelian rockitude.
• I got seriously burned by this bug.
• My pet bug wasn’t fixed for this release, but that’s alright; I’m in it for the long haul (I found a new one!).
• Blog by email is still rather broken. There’s no way to specify a tag, or category, or have attachments posted inline.
