The latest WordPress release, Sonny, is available today as a stable download candidate. I’ve already installed 3.3 on this site and we’ll be updating network blogs once we’ve worked through the inevitable plugin conflicts and customization issues.

The new release offers a bevy of new features and a new, critical eye on new users experience within WordPress. We’re excited to begin rolling this out to our clients and will be contacting you soon to schedule your upgrade.
