Yes, it’s out. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cubepoints/

New changes to this release include:

• Fix for Javascript files
• Introduction of an API system (will improve later on)
• Cron Automatic update now available
• Minor database changes

All users are recommended to update to this latest version since it fixes a critical Javascirpt problem in the previous versions.

For more information on API, please refer to the docs for more details. Need more? Wait for the next release ;)

So what are you waiting for? Download it and install it now!

Wow! Truly an unexpected release! I woke up this morning and found a link linking to a blog post in Wordpress.org blog saying that WP2.8 Beta 1 is realeased. Unlike WP 2.7 release, there are no polls this time, but completely based on the suggestions made in forum, IRC and Trac. Seems like a great improvement, keep the good work up!
