WordPress InstantUpdate 1.0alpha1 available for testing

 So you’ve “bought into” WordPress and you love it, but it can be annoying to update your WordPress installation with deleting directories, turning off plugins, etc… well, enter the InstantUpgrade plugin - a plugin to update your WordPress. It’s in alpha1 so use it on non-production sites, but the developers are interested in your feedback. URL to get it is in the notice below:

—————————————–

Hi all,

some of you know the InstantUpgrade plugin and apprechiate its simple
and clean upgrading. Now there is a new version in development, which
doesn’t need the blog owner to mess with file permissions — it does the
file transfers via FTP.

However, this feature needs plenty of testing before we can release it
to the general public, so I’d ask you very kindly, please visit
http://zirona.com/blog/software/instantupgrade-10-alpha1-testers-needed
download a copy and test the plugin. And please spread the word about
this dev release.

If we get this thing stable, this could be a revolution in maintaining
WordPress installations.

Thank you very much in advance.

Best regards,
Alex
