Version 3.7 of WordPress, named “Basie” in honor of Count Basie<\/a>, is available for download<\/a> or update in your WordPress dashboard. This release features some of the most important architectural updates we’ve made to date. Here are the big ones:<\/p>\n For developers there are lots of options around how to control the new updates feature, including allowing it to handle major upgrades as well as minor ones, more sophisticated date query support, and multisite improvements. As always, if you’re hungry for more dive into the Codex<\/a> or browse the over 400 closed tickets on Trac<\/a>.<\/p>\n This release was led by Andrew Nacin, backed up by Dion Hulse and Jon Cave. This is our first release using the new plugin-first development process, with a much shorter timeframe than in the past. (3.6 was released in August.) The 3.8 release, due in December, will continue this plugin-led development cycle that gives much more autonomy to plugin leads and allows us to decouple feature development from a release. You can follow this grand experiment, and what we’re learning from it, on the make\/core blog<\/a>. There are 211 contributors with props in this release:<\/p>\n Aaron Brazell<\/a>,\u00a0Aaron D.
