Dave, thanks for the faith :)

Unless there is a critical update, holding back on a stable version of software is usually the better option.

Until you folks on this site tell me I’m not doing the update. WP always has some security issues when its released.

I’m happy to see the work security slide into this release, it’s about time the development team took it seriously enough.

Things i like are:

- Salted passwords. Now we still need users to pick decent passwords in order to prevent brute-force attacks, but having this is another layer of security which is needed.
- Secure Cookies. Ok, about time we finally saw this rather fundamental protection needed for one of the main authentication/authorisation methods that WP uses.

One a side note, I’d love to know how many people here force their WP to use SSL, especially if they are readers of this site :0)
