At some point late yesterday evening WordPress released the 2.9.1 update patch which has the fixes to the bugs that were found in 2.9, and trust me there were a hell of a lot of bugs found in 2.9.
It fixes a lot of problems but the most important ones are the blank page when leaving comments and the scheduling bug (scheduled posts not publishing when meant to).
It also contains security solutions that were spotted in the original release.
I’d advise everyone to upgrade as soon as possible.

I have been progressively upgrading my blogs. I always like to start with the less significant blogs in case something goes wrong.
That is exactly the same thing that I do. I'd rather it go wrong to on of my smaller blogs than my main ones.

Thank you very much for your topic
No problem. I hope you upgrade very soon!
Thanks for this update.. I will upgrade my blog at once.. thank you very much
You're welcome. Always good to upgrade as soon as possible before those securities flaws are exposed on your blog.
This certainly resolves some of the problems I was having earlier. That said, it doesn’t seem as snappy as 2.9, now. Perhaps this is the result of having “working code”
I'm not a fan of the way they deal with the spam in his new version.
bug and bug
even after update i'm sure still lots of bug
That is quite normal after a major release. The thing I like about Wordpess is they are very quick at releasing updates to cover those bugs.
the 2.9.2 is available and can be downloaded from wordpress.org
You are very correct l. I would have written about it but it happened at a time when I was having some problems offline.
Thanks for letting everyone know.

That was something that was driving my crazy before I upgraded. I'd schedule a bunch of posts and none of them would go out when they were meant to.
