Hey all,
I'm working a fairly major overhaul of the blog topics plugin. If anyone would like to test it out, I'd be much obliged. You'll have to pull it from the branch I'm working in. Here's the link to the svn repo.
Basic directions are in the readme file. I plan to do a blog post with more detailed info once I push this to trunk.

Like most MU-ers I'm using Donccha's tag-plugin. But I like the idea of your plugin a lot.
Can you please tell me:
. Is your plugin doing the same thing and more? Does it aggregate the content?
. Can I deleted/deactivate Global Tags? Or should I keep it?
Deanna's plugin is for grouping the blogs themselves. So you can generate a list of blogs on your site grouped by what they are about.
It's completely different than sitewide tags.
I actually wrote a version that relied on Donncha's sitewide tags - and copied over a custom field to the tags blog and did all the aggregating out of there. It was more efficient, but I wasn't sure it was a great idea to tie so tightly to someone else's plugin.
So, yah, what Andrea said - it's different. We use a combination of the two.

Okay. Thanks. I'll combine them and see what's going to happen. :)
I am a lit bit confused about plugin versions. In WordPress plugin directory (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/blog-topics/) the latest version is 1.0. In readme.txt and changelog (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/blog-topics/changelog/) the latest version is the 3.1.
Anyway I installed this version in a WordPress MU 2.9.2 with BuddyPress 1.2.1.
I have the following problem: When I assign a topic to a blog using the administrator backend the drop down box doesn't change although the message "Options saved" is appearing. Using phpmyadmin, I discover that the database table wp_blogs_cets_topic_relationship has been updated but this change isn't represented in the blog topics admin.
