This document summarizes the upcoming changes and new features in WordPress 3.0. Some key points include:
- A new default theme with custom headers, backgrounds, clean design, and multiple widget areas.
- Custom post types and taxonomies allowing WordPress to function as a basic CMS.
- Better menu management with options like multiple menus, hierarchical menus, and reordering/excluding items.
- WordPress and WordPress MU will merge into a single WordPress platform, simplifying installation and management of single and multiple sites.
- For existing users, the transition process will be minimal and involve only minor file changes or imports depending on current setup.
