Download WordPress 2.0.7

WordPress has announced that a new version of the weblog script of the same name has been made available. WordPress is an open weblog software that is made available under the GPL license. The software says it can run within five minutes on a computer with PHP and MySQL. In addition to ‘blogging’, it is also possible to expand WordPress through plugins and themes. This time it is a security update that removes some bugs from the code of six files, including the files used to post articles.

• Feeds now properly serve 304 Not Modified headers instead of mismatched 200/304 headers (aka the FeedBurner bug).
• Backport of another 304 Not Modified fix from WordPress 2.1
• Deleting WordPress Pages no longer gives an “Are You Sure?” prompt.
• After deleting a WordPress Page, you are now properly redirected to the Edit Pages screen.
• Sending an image at original size in Internet Explorer no longer adds an incorrect “height” attribute.
