In case you didn’t see the alert in your WordPress dashboard, it looks like WordPress 2.3.1 is now available for download.   Included are tagging fixes for Windows Live Writer, as well as over 20 bug fixes.

It is always good to avoid vulnerability by always using the most current version of WordPress, so I recommend upgrading as soon as you get the chance.

Only a few weeks after the successful release of WordPress 2.3, it looks like the WordPress team is back at it again with their announcement that the next release, WordPress 2.3.1, is now available for download.

As is the case with most .1 releases, this release’s primary function will be to patch up a bunch of bugs that have been discovered in 2.3.  Click here to see a full list of the bugs that will be covered in this release.

As a quick reminder, this release is still in beta, so you won’t want to upgrade quite yet unless you have a good backup!
