As I was saying before, it’s really crazy, it seems like the month of January is a month of upgrading from WordPress 2.0.5 to WordPress 2.0.6, then just 5 days ago, WordPress released WordPress 2.0.7 but I found that out only 2 days after it was released.
So there, for security, I upgraded all my WordPress sites and blogs to WordPress 2.0.7. To think, that WordPress is going to have a major release soon before the month ends. Then they’re thinking of releasing 2.2, most likely late April. They even invited bloggers to contribute some ideas. Read about it here, Ideas and Kvetch!.
The truth is, when I visited Matt Mullenweg’s blog yesterday, he has a link to the WordPress 2.1 Release Candidate 1. It is out. I already downloaded it for testing but not really using it yet for the public sites and blogs.
Other Updates:
I updated the site Weggis.net. Sennenchilbi Weggis 2006 Video by Sofie Hofmann, courtesy of Yahoo! Video, and several photos were posted at the site.
I updated the site Pagtatap.org. As it was newly redesigned, I’m still improving certain things at the site.
I updated the site Greencross.ch. It was October 2006 when I removed the donation pages as I need to fix the pages. Yesterday, I finally finished configuring them. They were uploaded, and once again, Green Cross Switzerland is now ready to receive online donation.

It was just before Christmas when I upgraded Simply Sofie Blog and Pandan.gov.ph News section from WordPress 2.0.4 to WordPress 2.0.5. Then, I upgraded the other sites just after New Year, on January 05, 2005. I know it was kind of late already since WordPress 2.0.5 was released on October 27, 2006.
The last website that I upgraded on January 05, 2006 was Pagtatap.org. I finally finished converting the whole site from simple PHP pages to WordPress CMS. I used to have simple PHP pages with Pagtatap.org integrated with the Updates section using WordPress. The theme design was patterned after the original web design of Pagtatap.org. I just redesigned it a little bit.
Just when I finished uploading Pagtatap.org files using FTP and then logged on to WordPress to check if everything was ok, I saw that just 2 hours before that, WordPress.org released the new WordPress 2.0.6 version.
I immediately downloaded the new version and upgraded Pagtatap.org. As I was still checking and finalizing Pagtatap.org, I was only able to upload and upgrade the other websites after 3 days. Sehdi.com, Weggis.net, SofieHofmann.com Blog, Pandan.ph, and Pandan.gov.ph News were all upgraded to WordPress 2.0.6 on the same day. Upgrading takes about 3 to 5 minutes only, it’s really that easy. I won’t write here anymore, on how to install and upgrade WordPress as I have written about it several times. You can read my other posts if you like to know more about it.
Just when I upgraded everything to WordPress 2.0.6, I read too that WordPress will have a major release soon. You can read Matt Mullenweg’s blog entry, Ideas and Kvetch, at WordPress.org.
It’s just so crazy, upgrading all the time for the month of January. Well, that’s one good thing about WordPress, even if WordPress releases a new version within a month, it’s not really a hassle because it’s not so complicated to upgrade from one version to a newer one.
Other Updates:
I just finished updating Green Cross Switzerland and Swiss Big Game Fishing sites.
