I’ve upgraded both this site and the Jujusoft Blog to WordPress 2.0.2 today, and I have to say I am liking the new admin interface. No major problems so far, and the only changes I had to make were the same ones I did last time; basically some customization for permalinks, spam avoidance and a fix to the xml-rpc code. The latter fix may be a problem with WordPress, or it may be just my own misinterpretation of the MetaWeblog API, but I think the following comment which appears in xmlrpc.php says it all:

/* MetaWeblog API functions
* specs on wherever Dave Winer wants them to be
*/

It really is a vague spec for something so relevant to blogging. My problem seems to be with the way creation dates are passed– I send a standardized string but the WordPress interpretation of the MetaWeblog API seems to expect an object– so I change the code to accept what I send.
