    Specifically, I'm wondering if there's a tag in CVS that I could use to make my blog stick at 1.5 now, or if I'd be best served downloading and overwriting everything with one of the archives?

    I have 1.5 from one of the nighly versions, just doing the normal instructions should be ok for updating to the Stable version of 1.5? can anyone confirm that?

    i had a nightly 1.5 version (2005-02-10 i believe) and was able to upgrade with no problems. i followed the instructions as they are laid out. backed up and then i deleted everything except wp-config.php and the wp-content folder. btw..i did disable plugins and .htaccess, additionally i disabled permalinks.

    One strange thing i noticed was that i had a theme created after i logged back in that was named my blog name. i simply ftp'd and deleted it with no issues.

    Overall...painless. wordpress can only be called impressive.

    I would just cvs update now (and then not do it anymore :))

    There aren't any new branches (yet...), so go for it.

    Do i upload the new wp-config.php or not?

    Never mind, you don't.

    Anyways i think i got it updated correctly and yes i also had a new theme with the name of my blog inside the themes folder and under presentation.
