But, then, with over 20 million people using WordPress with a wide variety of configurations and hosting setups, it&#8217;s entirely possible that we&#8217;ve missed something. So! For the brave of heart, please download the RC and test it out (but not on your live site unless you&#8217;re extra adventurous). Some things to know:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Custom menus are finished! Yay!</li>\n<li>Multi-site is all set.</li>\n<li>The look of the WordPress admin has been lightened up a little bit, so you can focus more on your content.</li>\n<li>There are a ton of changes, so plugin authors, please test your plugins <strong>now</strong>, so that if there is a compatibility issue, we can figure it out before the final release.</li>\n<li>Plugin and theme *users* are also encouraged to test things out. If you find problems, let your plugin/theme authors know so they can figure out the cause.</li>\n<li>There are a couple of <a href=\" http://core.trac.wordpress.org/report/5\">known issues</a>.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>If you are testing the RC and come across a bug, you can:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Report it on the <a href=\"http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers\">wp-testers mailing list</a></li>\n<li>Join the dev chat and tell us live at irc.freenode.net #wordpress-dev</li>\n<li>File a bug ticket on the <a href=\"https://core.trac.wordpress.org/query?status=reopened&amp;status=assigned&amp;status=reviewing&amp;status=new&amp;status=accepted&amp;group=status&amp;milestone=3.0\">WordPress Trac </a></li>\n</ul>\n<p>We hope you enjoy playing with the 3.0 RC as much as we&#8217;ve enjoyed making it for you.

Help them upgrade their blog or find the perfect theme. Talk about how WordPress is built by and for a community. Drop in to help test 3.0, including all the plugins you use. Write something to take advantage of the new 3.0 features, or teach your friends how to. If you buy any themes or plugins, make sure they&#8217;re GPL or compatible just like WordPress. We&#8217;ve got a long road ahead of us, it&#8217;s important that we not forget that Open Source got us this far, and is the only way we&#8217;re going to get to the next level. The whole of what we can build together is far greater than the sum of our parts.

Since that first WordCamp in 2006, back when WordPress was on version 2.0 (Duke), the number of people using WordPress to power their web publishing &#8212; from personal blogs to large-scale commercial sites &#8212; has grown by millions. It&#8217;s no wonder this year&#8217;s event is going to be so great.</p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re unfamiliar with <a href=\"http://wordcamp.org/\">WordCamps</a>, here&#8217;s the skinny: the San Francisco event is the flagship, put together each year under the direction of WordPress co-founder and lead developer <a href=\"http://ma.tt\">Matt Mullenweg</a>, who traditionally reports on the &#8220;State of the Word&#8221; and assembles a lineup of <a href=\"http://2010.sf.wordcamp.org/speakers/\">speakers</a> that have inspired him over the past year. This year&#8217;s lineup includes luminaries such as Richard Stallman, the father of Free Software, best-selling author Scott Berkun, and Salon.com co-founder Scott Rosenberg. As the final speaker list is finalized, the remaining speakers will be added to the <a href=\"http://2010.sf.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp SF website</a>, but a surprise or two is still possible.</p>\n<p>Though the main event is on Saturday, May 1, there are additional <a href=\"http://2010.sf.wordcamp.org/schedule/\">days of WordPress goodness</a> in store. Saturday, May 1 will be the main conference with scheduled speakers. There will be keynotes, session tracks for both bloggers/end-users and developers, and lightning talks to provide a broad mix of content, followed by a raging afterparty. Sunday, May 2 will shift location and tone, with a low-key developers&#8217; unconference for the super-code-focused attendees. May 3 and 4 are conference-free, but a WordPress core contributor in-person code sprint will span those two days, bringing together core contributors old and new from around the globe for two days of intense hacking (and let&#8217;s face it, 3.0 bug fixes).</p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re in the Bay Area, or can be, and want to attend <a href=\"http://2010.sf.wordcamp.org/\">WordCamp San Francisco</a>, <a href=\"http://2010.sf.wordcamp.org/tickets/\">go get your ticket today</a>!</p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">*     *      *      *     *</p>\n<h3><strong>Other Upcoming WordCamps</strong></h3>\n<p>It&#8217;s definitely WordCamp season; just check out the growing list of upcoming WordCamps over the next couple of months!

If you get stuck, need collaborators, or have a question about the best way to approach a fix, hop into the dev channel on IRC at irc.freenode.net, channel #wordpress-dev. Core developers will be around over the weekend working on bugs themselves, so if you&#8217;re trying to help, don&#8217;t be afraid to ask questions. With your help, maybe by Monday we can knock the bug count down to half of what it is right now. How great would that be? (Answer: pretty great)</p>\n<p>The sprint will go full force until Monday afternoon, when the lead developers and core committers will all stop to take a breath and look at the remaining bug reports to see how we did over the weekend, so don&#8217;t wait! And thanks!</p>\n\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:36:\"http://wellformedweb.org/CommentAPI/\";a:1:{s:10:\"commentRss\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:73:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2010/04/coming-up-on-beta-2-sprint/feed/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}s:38:\"http://purl.org/rss/1.0/modules/slash/\";a:1:{s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:1:\"0\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}}}}i:5;a:6:{s:4:\"data\";s:41:\"\n		\n		\n		\n		\n		\n				\n\n		\n		\n			\n			\n		\n		\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";s:5:\"child\";a:5:{s:0:\"\";a:7:{s:5:\"title\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:30:\"Secure File Permissions Matter\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"link\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:58:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2010/04/file-permissions/\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"comments\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:67:\"http://wordpress.org/development/2010/04/file-permissions/#comments\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:7:\"pubDate\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:31:\"Tue, 13 Apr 2010 19:52:30 +0000\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:8:\"category\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:11:\"Development\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:0:{}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:4:\"guid\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:40:\"http://wordpress.org/development/?p=1322\";s:7:\"attribs\";a:1:{s:0:\"\";a:1:{s:11:\"isPermaLink\";s:5:\"false\";}}s:8:\"xml_base\";s:0:\"\";s:17:\"xml_base_explicit\";b:0;s:8:\"xml_lang\";s:0:\"\";}}s:11:\"description\";a:1:{i:0;a:5:{s:4:\"data\";s:404:\"Summary: A web host had a crappy server configuration that allowed people on the same box to read each others&#8217; configuration files, and some members of the &#8220;security&#8221; press have tried to turn this into a &#8220;WordPress vulnerability&#8221; story.\nWordPress, like all other web applications, must store database connection info in clear text.

This means there are a few things we&#8217;re still finishing. We wanted to get people testing it this weekend, so we&#8217;re releasing it now rather than waiting another week until everything is finalized and polished. There&#8217;s a ton of stuff going on in 3.0, so this time we&#8217;re giving you a list of things to check out, so that we can make sure people are testing all the things that need it.</p>\n<p><span id=\"more-1303\"></span>You Should Know:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>The custom menus system (Appearance &gt; Menus) is not quite finished. In Beta 2, the layout will be different and a bunch of the functionality will be improved, but we didn&#8217;t want to hold things up for this one screen. You can play with making custom menus, and report bugs if you find them, but this is not how the final screen will look/work, so don&#8217;t get attached to it.</li>\n<li>The merge! Yes, WordPress and WordPress MU have merged. This does not mean that you can suddenly start adding a bunch of new blogs from within your regular WordPress Dashboard. If you&#8217;re interested in testing the Super Admin stuff associated with multiple sites, you&#8217;ll need <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/User:Andrea/Create_A_Network\">some simple directions</a> to get started.</li>\n<li>We&#8217;re still fiddling with a few small things in the UI, as we were focused on getting the more function-oriented code finished first. For example, we&#8217;re getting a new icon for the Super Admin section.</li>\n</ul>\n<p>Things to test:</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Play with the new default theme, Twenty Ten, including the custom background and header options.</li>\n<li>Custom Post Type functionality has been beefed up.

When all those apps started popping up using the Twitter API, things like automatically following anyone who followed you and sending an automatic Direct Message seemed like good ideas. We&#8217;re all friends, right? Wrong. That auto-follow bit us hard, and the huge amount of spam the account gets means that it&#8217;s been nearly impossible to monitor legitimate messages from WordPress users and developers who need to be pointed to a help resource. We&#8217;re sorry! Just as we needed to get the <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/extend/ideas/\">Ideas Forum</a> under control* so that it could become a more useful resource for the community, we needed to get rid of the spam clogging our Twitter arteries. Except there was no easy way to do it.</p>\n<p>We had wound up following over 50,000 people. If someone went to the @WordPress profile page on Twitter to see the stream of updates from people we followed, almost none of it had anything to do with WordPress or the community. Diet pills, Twitter scams, and multi-posted spam messages were the norm. Yuck! Who else wishes there was <a href=\"http://akismet.com/\">Akismet</a> for Twitter? Unfortunately, there&#8217;s no easy way to clear this stuff out quickly (mass unfollows trigger their TOS alert, so it&#8217;s not surprising). I even contacted Twitter directly to see what the options might be, and it was suggested we use a script to clear the account.<strong> To be clear: </strong>Twitter flagged our account so that when the script was run they wouldn&#8217;t mark us as spammers for violating the TOS with a mass unfollow. We communicated with them beforehand, and the use of scripts to do this is not encouraged. Twitter was doing us a nice favor to help us get our house in order. Thanks, Twitter! Last night I ran the script and removed everyone. Extreme, but in good cause, right?</p>\n<p>We&#8217;re now starting to re-follow real people from the WordPress community. There will be no more auto-follow. If you are a WordPress developer, designer, blogger, fan site, whatever &#8212; and think your tweets should appear in the @WordPress updates stream, then send an @ reply to us and we can add you to the new list (assuming you&#8217;re not hawking diet pills, free iPads or ways to get a million followers). This way, people who are new to WordPress and go to check us out on Twitter will (hopefully) get a sense of the vibrant community that we have. People who send @ messages to us won&#8217;t (hopefully) wonder indefinitely why they were ignored, because without all the spam, maybe we can use Twitter as it was intended to be used, as another channel of communication.</p>\n<p>And for anyone who uses Qwitter and thinks @WordPress stopped loving them because of the last tweet they posted before the script ran&#8230; sorry! It wasn&#8217;t like that, we swear! It would be nice if the script could have done a bulk DM before the removal, but nope (otherwise we&#8217;d have included a message about this). So trust us, we still like you! And if you haven&#8217;t already been re-followed, please don&#8217;t take it personally&#8230; just send an @reply to @WordPress (tell us how you use WordPress!) and we&#8217;ll try to get you re-added soon. Later today (hopefully) you&#8217;ll find out what&#8217;s been keeping us so busy!</p>\n<p><em>*Have you noticed?

By the time applications are due, I&#8217;ll have revised it based on community and mentor feedback, and enough people will know who I am &#8212; and that I&#8217;m full of initiative &#8212; that my chances of being accepted will be much better.</p>\n<p><strong>Jack: </strong>You think you&#8217;re all Felicia Day with your MW2 level 70, but you&#8217;re just a computer nerd.</p>\n<p><strong>Sophie:</strong> Um, duh.

Sophie&#8217;s correct; talking to community members and mentors will improve her chances. But, Jack, there&#8217;s no reason you can&#8217;t join the IRC chats and the mailing list to get your name out there, too, even if you submit your application today. Most proposals get tweaked a bit after the students are chosen anyway.</p>\n<p><strong>Sophie: </strong>Plus, Felicia Day is awesome!

Early applications will likely get a bit more attention up front, but it&#8217;s also important that your ideas and approach are vetted by the community and <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/GSoC2010#Mentors\">the mentors</a>. If you haven&#8217;t already, you should join the <a href=\"http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-hackers\">wp-hackers mailing list</a> and send your proposal to the list for feedback. We&#8217;ll also be doing a few IRC chats during the application period to give students a chance to talk directly with the mentors. Note that not every mentor will attend all three chats, so if you want to talk to a specific person, you might want to email them. Please arrive on time to the chats, as they will be scheduled for an hour, and will have to accommodate multiple students. IRC chats will be held at irc.freenode.net in room #wordpress-gsoc.</p>\n<ul>\n<li>Wednesday, March March 31 at 20:30 UTC (4:30pm eastern)</li>\n<li>Saturday, April 3 at 21:30 UTC (5:30pm eastern)</li>\n<li>Wednesday, April 7 at 20:30 UTC (4:30pm eastern)</li>\n</ul>\n<p>This chat room will remain open during the application period, and various mentors and community members may be there and able to answer questions, but the scheduled chats are the only official times at which they are scheduled to do so.</p>\n<p>Oh, and if you want to help publicize the WordPress summer of code, <a href=\"http://wpdevel.files.wordpress.com/2010/03/wordpress-gsoc-flyer.pdf\">grab a flyer</a> and post it somewhere on a bulletin board at your local college campus.

helping your child study Latin, but  may feel a little unsure of the grammar. I  have decided to explain to you some fundamental grammatical concepts so you will be able to help your child more successfully.  Don\'t worry- I won\'t go into great detail- just enough to give you some idea of what your child needs to know.  I hope this helps!</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">One of the points I try to stress to the students is that Latin verbs are actually simpler and more straightfoward than English verbs!  It is really true!</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">For example:</span>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Look at these forms of the verb \'to walk.\'  You will notice that the form \'walk\' is used in 5 out of the 6 forms:</span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">I <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  you <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  s/he walks </span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">we <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  y\'all <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  they <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk  </span></span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">(When I teach, I like to use the locution \'y\'all\' for the plural because it makes it clear that the writer/ speaker means \'you plural.\'  So I will use it henceforth on this blog.)</span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Therefore, in English, we need the pronouns to show us who is doing the walking.  But in Latin there is no need for pronouns to show who is doing </span><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">the walking.   The endings, which I have highlighted, tell us who is walking.  These are called \'personal endings\' and they are used for every Latin verb.</span></span></em>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><em>ambul<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">O</span></em><em> = I walk,  ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">S</span> = you walk, ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">T</span> = s/he walks</em></span>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">MUS</span> = we walk,  ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">TIS</span> = y\'all, ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">NT</span> = they walk</span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Compare the Latin with the English.   In Latin the one-word verb conveys all the necessary information you need to know about who is doing the action.  It is much simpler and straightforward than the English way!   But your child learned, by osmosis, the more difficult English way of  using verbs, so the Latin way seems odd.</span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">The highlighted endings above are what I am asking your child to know by heart.  Once he or she has these understood and memorized, Latin will seem much less difficult!</span></em>','Latin II / III For Parents: Helping Your Child','','inherit','open','closed','','25-revision-5','','','2009-12-08

and more straightfoward than English verbs!  It is really true!</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">For example:</span>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Look at these forms of the verb \'to walk.\'  You will notice that the form \'walk\' is used in 5 out of the 6 forms:</span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">I <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  you <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  s/he walks </span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">we <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  y\'all <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk</span>,  they <span style=\"color: #0000ff\">walk  </span></span></em>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">(When I teach, I like to use the locution \'y\'all\' for the plural because it makes it clear that the writer/ speaker means \'you plural.\'  So I will use it henceforth on this blog.)</span></em>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #0000ff\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Therefore, in English, we need the pronouns to show us who is doing the walking.  But in Latin there is no need for pronouns to show who is doing </span><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">the walking.   The endings, which I have highlighted, tell us who is walking.  These are called \'personal endings\' and they are used for every Latin verb in the present tense.  Here is the Latin way of using verbs:</span></span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\"><em>ambul<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">O</span></em><em> = I walk,  ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">S</span> = you walk, ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">T</span> = s/he walks</em></span>\r\n\r\n<em><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">MUS</span> = we walk,  ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">TIS</span> = y\'all walk, ambula<span style=\"color: #0000ff\">NT</span> = they walk </span></em>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Compare the Latin with the English.   In Latin the one-word verb conveys all the necessary information you need to know about who is doing the action.  It is much simpler and straightforward than the English way!   But your child learned, by osmosis, the more difficult English way of  using verbs, so the Latin way seems odd.</span>\r\n\r\n<span style=\"color: #ff0000\">The highlighted endings above are what I am asking your child to know by heart.  Once he or she has these understood and memorized, Latin will seem much less difficult!</span>','Latin II / III For Parents: Helping Your

may feel a little unsure of the grammar.

Latin teacher who retired last June, started the Latin program at Ray.  About three years later, she and a few other CPS Latin teachers collaborated on a new event for elementary, middle, and high school students called the Latin Olympics.  It ran pretty smoothly for about 23 years, and then ran into problems with funding and location.  Many of the teachers and volunteers who worked on it retired or left.  The 2009 Olympics was the last one which kept the original format and many of the original planners.\r\n\r\nThis year, the','LATIN OLYMPICS for Latin I and Latin
