I've had a look at 2.6 and found that there are a couple of bugs (for my anyways) How are you finding it over 2.3.x? 2.5.1 is quite nice and stable.

How are you finding it over 2.3.x?

The command: <code> svn sw http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.5/ </code> should have a period at the end to tell subversion to put the files in the current directory. Otherwise, it puts them in a subdirectory called "2.5". So the command should be: <code> svn sw http://svn.automattic.com/wordpress/tags/2.5/ . </code> Other than that, this went smoothly for me. Thanks for the tip! I was tired of waiting for 2.5 to show up in the Ubuntu repositories, so I uninstalled Wordpress (saving my wp-config.php before doing so), and switched to using subversion. Much better. I think you have one minor typo. The command:

Thus far, I've not experienced any real problems (and like the admin UI changes). However, I notice that you had a pretty lengthy upgrade instruction list. I would like to recommend that you look into Wordpress Automatic Upgrade (most recent version available in the wordpress.org plugin repository), for guided and painless upgrades. The WPAU plugin will guide the upgrade automatically, from performing file/database backups, to putting the blog in maintenance mode, disabling active plugins, fetching and installing the upgrade files, upgrading the database, and re-enabling previously active plugins. It has been a great help for me in keeping my wordpress installation always up to date. I also upgraded to WP version 2.5 this weekend; like yours, my experience was relatively painless.
