WordPress 2.3 Upgrade Party

Wednesday September 26, 2007 at 7:00pm

Matt's Apt

355 1st Street
San Francisco, 94105 Get Directions

WordPress 2.3 is coming out on Monday, so come out Wednesday evening and upgrade your blog with the pros. How badly can you screw it up when the developers are right there? If you upgrade your blog before Wednesday come and help out others and make feature requests.

Super-chill event, just bring your laptop, yourself, and your WordPress blog. I'll provide booze, soft drinks, and wifi.

Topics of discussion will include Trackback Etiquette: Ping on the First Date?, Join the Conspiracy to Relabel All Websites Blogs, and Putting the Friend in XFN.

I can't attend due to being across the country, but I have to say this is a great idea Matt.

I'll be watching: I'm half an Earth away from where you are and I have school on the 26th and I have examinations next week so it's a major pity I can't attend :(

I'll be punctually upgrading my blog though :D

Terrific idea. I will be upgrading to 2.3 ASAP, but will have to sit in a 28hr flight to be there :-)

If you buy my plane fare I'll show up - either that or perhaps you can sponsor other parties in other cities? I'd gladly host one in Chicago.

wow, you're like three blocks from my workplace. maybe i will drop by... although if InstantUpgrade works as well as it has on all past installs, I might be gathering some converts for Alex Günche's life-altering plugin.

Haha you're nuts Matt. You'll end up with half of SF in your flat! I might throw a UK version of the party up in Cambridge! ;)

Upgrading my numerous blogs tonight, and got about 2-3 friends queued up who need to be sorted out next.

Hope I get the chance to say hi at FOWA next week.

Wow, would have loved to have come (hey, it's just down the elevator and across the hallway!) but Sofia and I will be in Hawaii.

BTW for everyone else: the building has some fat bandwidth coming in, and as we'll be away from the Metropolitan for the week we won't be saturating it with our BitTorrent. Enjoy the big-pipe-goodness kids.

Fat pipes were operational. Plenty of beer and mostly enough pizza. Many successful upgrades. A few minutes face time with Matt. What more could you ask for? Bring on the next release...
