    Why did they support it as long as they did? Is anyone still using that older version? If so, why?

    I will confess I hung on with 2.0.11 for one of my blogs for quite a while, because the jump to 2.2 (I think) broke the theme I was using (and had fallen in love with). Strangely enough, the theme worked again around 2.5, so I made my jump then. I’ve since gone to Thesis, so all that is history now.

    Won’t name any names (though I’d dearly love to!) but couldn’t get any support out of the guy who wrote the darned thing.

    So, yeah, 2.0.x is kind of the passing of an era for me.

    One thing I notice is that it seems like with every new release of WordPress, there’s usually bugs that crop up almost immediately. I actually waited until 2.8.2 to jump from 2.7.1.

    I thought I had read a while back that it was part of a deal to be included in some Linux distribution; they had to maintain the 2.0.x line for a set amount of years. I guess that limit has now expired.

    Yes, I am still using the wordpress 2.0.11. It is much easier to use and less complicated. It let me install the plugin/theme and do the work myself.
