The plans for WordPress 3.3 have been laid. There’s a lot to get done before the potential November 15th release date, but it seems like we can definitely look forward to an improved media uploader, an informative welcome screen for first-time users, improved Dashboard performance, further admin bar improvements, permalink performance improvements, partial build update improvements, and various API improvements.
If you can’t wait for WordPress 3.3, or just want to contribute to your favorite blogging platform, now is the perfect time to get involved!
Very, very interesting evolution of images handling.
The media uploader is absolutely terrible in wordpress. Fortunately there are a couple of plugins that can speed up the process, but an overhall of the current systems in clearly necessary.
