   On the auto upgrade, from b1 to b2 and now to 3, the installation fails due to exact same process every time. But if I manually do it, no problem.

   Downloading update from http://wordpress.org/nightly-builds/wordpress-latest.zip

   Unpacking the core update

   Could not copy file: /public_html/wp-content/upgrade/core/wordpress/wp-trackback.php

   Installation Failed

   some hosts this just will not work on (their paranoia) - check with your host to see if they will allow this action

   Then I hope the automatic upgrade plug-in that is currently in use with the 2.6.x builds will continue to work with 2.7. It works flawlessly.

   it could also be that the plugin author's site is down or whacked
