Yesterday Matt Mullenweg, a bigwig with the WordPress content management system, posted this:

Last week we released WordPress 3.2, a version focused on making WP faster and lighter with a refreshed dashboard, new Twenty Eleven theme, a zen writing mode, and more: http://wordpress.org/news/2011/07/gershwin/

We waited to email because there were some issues  with the JSON module on some web hosts, which the just-released version 3.2.1 fixes. Download from WordPress.org or click the update button in your dashboard to get the latest.What else is new? We’re doing a census of the WordPress World, if you have 5 minutes take this survey:

We’re going to tally up the results and present them in my State of the Word talk next month in San Francisco, so send it to everyone you know who uses WordPress so we get the most representative sample.

There are also some fun WordCamps approaching in San Diego, Portsmouth, Boston, Chicago, Fayetteville, St. Louis, San Francisco, and Los Angeles:

Hope to see you at one soon!

Stay cool,
Matt
