Yeah, 2.5 is pretty cool I guess. The only change that bugs me is that the image upload window apparently has a flash element (I use a crappy computer with an old Mozilla and no flash plugin), so that's lame.
Also, I'm not sure about the new plugin updater they're hailing... I clicked "upgrade" and Wordpress took me to a page asking for information for an FTP server... I couldn't tell if this was for MY server or the server where the plugin resides. Well my server doesn't run FTP (for good reason!) and how the hell should I know where the plugin's FTP server resides? I thought this was supposed to be "one click" upgrades...? I could go research on Wordpress, as I'm sure there's a FAQ entry or a messageboard posting, but why didn't they just make this FTP page actually tell me a little more information!?
On a side note, I think the new admin interface is ugly but I can get over that. From what I understand they reworked some user interface API hooks so admin styles should be easier to design. I found this one from Dean J Robinson and it's pretty snazzy: http://deanjrobinson.com/projects/fluency-admin/
