WordPress 3.5 Beta 1 Available

[LPH]

I just checked into Twitter - and there was the news - WordPress 3.5 Beta 1 is available.

These are some the changes:

• Appearance: A simplified welcome screen. A new color picker. And the all-HiDPI (retina) dashboard.
  
• Accessibility: Keyboard navigation and screen reader support have both been improved.
  
• Plugins: You can browse and install plugins you’ve marked as favorites on WordPress.org, directly from your dashboard.
  
• Mobile: It’ll be easier to link up your WordPress install with our mobile apps, as XML-RPC is now enabled by default.
  
• Links: We’ve hidden the Link Manager for new installs. (Don’t worry, there’s a plugin for that.)
  

Now, let's get some WordPress multisite features improved.

You are really on top of it tonight!

Did you notice this in the announcements?

switch_to_blog() is now used in more places, is faster, and more reliable. Also: You can now use multisite in a subdirectory, and uploaded files no longer go through ms-files (for new installs).
