Exploring with Wiki

Today I started reading a book (Extreme Programming Explained, by Kent Beck) that I borrowed from Brian (Kodehoved). It was inspirational. It brought a tear to me eye, literally.

Upgrade and upgrading

Luisa just upgraded to the new Wordpress version, 1.5 (Strayhorn), and it is so much better than this 1.2 thing. Tobias also runs the 1.5 and I suffer from deep version envy. The comment spam problem should be interesting to look at, as they have just begun using their new 1.5 Wordpresses. Has the upgrade [...]
