Update to 2.7

Time to do the upgrade to WP 2.7. The new admin interface looks very shiny and bright. The new plugin installer allows for looking up and installing plugins from right within the admin interface will no doubt cause me to blow up my blog as I install reams of incompatable plugins. My FNF (favourite new feature) so far is the upgrader which upgrades the WordPress install from completely within the admin interface – no more download, copy over old files, re-create config file. That will be nice and should help to keep everyone’s WP more up to date and secure.

OK – here goes. Step 1 – back up everything!
