I’m a little late to the announcement game, given that I was out of town for awhile and still catching up, but here it is anyways;
Wordpress 2.8.5 has been released! (zip) (tar.gz)
This is just a security update, similar to the last couple of version releases (list of updates can be found here). If you’re looking for the cool stuff, you’re going to have to wait for 2.9, which will probably be coming out some time next month.
Please also note that this is just the Standalone version of Wordpress.org – Wordpress ยต (MU) 2.8.5 has not been released yet. Donncha is always on top of getting MU up to speed though, so keep an eye out for this release to be hitting shelves shortly.
Saw this update Yesterday and the first thing which I did
was Backup my Db and updated the wordpress. Though wordpress are releasing very quick update..

2.9 doesn’t look like it’s very far away either. They’re keeping on top of security though, which is one of the benefits to open source software, so no complaints from me.
