WordPress 2.5 Due soon, Would the team make the target?
There is a lot of good work being done by the development team. I have been monitoring the changes using CommitMonitor and also looking at the Wordpress Milestone 2.5. But from what I can see even though all this updates are coming its going to be a tough given that the deadline has been moved twice (once because 2.4 was never released | WordPress 2.5 Delayed a Week) now. Not to mention there are over 400 Active tickets as I am writing this.
I wish the developers good luck in getting it done in the next 6 says. But I am not hopeful that they will be ready for to release it by then.
According to lorelle “Indeed, WordPress 2.4 has now been removed from the WordPress Roadmap, and WordPress 2.5 is still scheduled for March 24, 2008″. Now that seems more positive and reasonable to me.

Just so you know a little history, the original “due” date for release of 2.5 was the end of March, I think the 25th. They moved it up recently as testing was going great, so a week delay to “get it right” is not a big ordeal for users. Unlike some software companies which don’t upgrade significantly for years on end.
