Here at wesimation.com we have recently upgraded to the newest edition of WordPress (version 2.5.1), with WordPress 2.5 being a semi-flop (yes we did know this but we upgraded anyway!), the new version 2.5.1 is a much more stable release with a few important security updates and a hell of a lot of bug fixes (counted currently at 70).

The WordPress team suggest that you COULD update the files just to implement the security updates however this is not advised as there is one major bug fix that they have implemented. I posted this bug on the WordPress forum about 3 weeks ago where everyone was sort of having the same problem. The bug seemed to have occurred when people edit their text widgets on the sidebar and if they press cancel, WordPress seems to think it is okay to remove all of the text widgets content (including others). Can you imagine how annoying this was? Having to constantly backup the SQL database just in case the text widget randomly removes the content.

This is why I strongly suggest all WordPress users to implement this complete update and once you use it you too will be OMG! This update can be found at the usual spots including http://wordpress.org/download/
