A security release of WordPress, WordPress 2.07 has just been released. It contains a security fix that I, and the WordPress development team, highly recommend that you update your WordPress blog.
If you have been putting off your WordPress update, don’t. Please, update your WordPress version now. Don’t wait. You’ve been clearly warned.

Great warning. There have been several applications for script kiddies to exploit wordpress blogs that have not been upgraded. Hopefully people heed the warning before getting rocked.
I always update immediately. Same hour, if possible. Even with running 9+ blogs on my server, it only takes about 30 minutes maximum to upload nine copies and run the upgrade files. I’m definitely in love with WordPress.
Don’t forget to point to “WordPress 2.0.7 Upgrade: changed files ZIP, changes diff, changed files list” from Mark Jaquith – It’s an amazing time saver!
I have just upgraded my site (locally to test first) from 2.0.5 to 2.0.7, and it seems that my custom defined permalinks no longer work. I set a custom format, but it keeps linking to:
/index.php/%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/
This is a problem for any blog carnivals that link to existing articles. Is this simply user error, or is it a possible bug etc.?
I recommend you ask in the WordPress Support Forums. You might want to check your Permalink structure under Options in the Administration Panels to make sure it didn’t get changed.
