    With the release of WP3, is this forum now dead?

    Will it be merged/renamed/remain for MU focused issues of WP3?

    Ha. I see the "Version" option bar never even got updated to 2.8 ... !

    The forum will remain for the short term, as there are still people who haven't been upgraded.
    Eventually though, it *will* get moved. If you're not up to speed on the dev chats, the next two months will see a wordpress.org refresh. That includes this area.
    Likely after Monday I'll have more specific news.

    There's already a new forum section at the regular wordpress forums:
    http://wordpress.org/support/forum/14

    I argued for giving people notice & time to adjust to a move rather than a wholesale shutting down and redirect. ;)

    Oh boy ... that will be fun. And very much a sign of the time I think.

    Thank you for your response.

    Yes, not all plugins etc are ready yet for WP3 ... BUT I do agree at some point soon for a culling of all older versions.

    The plugin directory, especially, and to a lesser extent the themes section is becoming overloaded with obsolete stuff.

    Those are getting an overhaul as well.
