b2 v0.6 pre-release version is out !
It's in the
/releases folder, as usual.
I've been working hard to fix all the bugs I could, but it's still possible that you stumble on a bug. If you do, please report it in the forum, or e-mail me if it's a security-related bug (which is very unlikely, but you never know...).
This new version features file/image upload, template tags enhancements, lots of speed improvements, an XMLRPC interface implementing the Blogger API, post preview, RSS syndication, and a new spellchecker (since the old one, spellchecker.net, isn't free anymore).
You can "post to the future", by editing the date of the post: the post wouldn't be displayed until it's the right time in your timezone.
You can post through a SideBar (IE5+/NS6+ only), in addition to the regular bookmarklet (bookmarklet now working in IE5 Mac).
Oh, you can also post multiple-pages entries now. And with the new cookie system, you stay logged in for days until you logout

(be careful and logout on shared computers though)
Have fun !
UPDATE: just fixed some bugs with the comments. If you downloaded the file already, download it again and replace the file b2template.functions.php in /b2-include - also, add a line to b2config.php that says
$comments_notify = 1; if you want to have comments emailed to you.
UPDATE (10:00): bugs fixed, new versions are online: replace b2profile.php, b2login.php and b2register.php with the new ones.
Those who download the file now do not have to apply these fixes.
