    How can I turn off the ability for anyone to create an account in a specific blog? Basically read only... I post, they read, no comments, no nothing.
    Will this affect the ability to create an account

    Q: "How can I turn off the ability for anyone to create an account in a specific blog?"
    A: WPMU can only add users from your community of bloggers via wp-signup.php

    Q: "Basically read only... I post, they read, no comments, no nothing. Will this affect the ability to create an account?"
    A: Options-->General Membership: Users must be registered to comment.

    A1: Hacks to wp-signup.php
    A2: Hack wpmu-functions.php
    A3: Write a plugin using hooks from A1 and functions from A2.
    A4: Await WPMU 1.3 as registration is controlled from SiteAdmin.

    "A4: Await WPMU 1.3 as registration is controlled from SiteAdmin."

    Where can I find a list of features being worked on for 1.3, and also does it have an estimated release date?

    Thanks

    Donncha has been announcing Release Candidates in these forums. A couple in the last few days, heed his warnings before going live.

    Looking at http://trac.mu.wordpress.org/browser there are two folders. The TAGS folder would appear to contain all the stable releases, up to 1.2.5a, so I'm assuming the TRUNK folder has the most recent beta (which is currently 1.3?).

    Can I just download and install the trunk files, to set up a test site for these files? How do I do an 'update' to my test site, when changes are made, without having to download everything?

    Is there something like CVS for keeping up with current builds?

    THanks
