 * hi.
 * current movabletype user:
 * [http://blog.radified.com/](http://blog.radified.com/)
 * thinking of migrating to wp (for cool factor).
 * was reading some wp users feel v2.1 is no good. see here:

 * pov = point of view
 * thats one person’s opinion.
 * >> older version
 * what do you mean?
 * The two branches have releases that came out the same day. there is 2.1.3 and
   2.0.10.
 * On a completely unrelated note, WHY do you have a lunarpages banner on your site
   w/o having some sort of affiliate code linked to it???
 * I used lunarpages quite a while ago, with another domain, and made a fair amount
   of $$ promoting them with an image on my site.
 * You really need to look into that.

 * there *is* an affiliate link there .. if you click you will see .. it just doesn’t
   show up on the roll-over.
 * any advice (opinion) on which version would be best to install .. anywhere i 
   can read about pro’s vs con’s.

 * ahhh, good deal then 🙂 Hope you’re making lots of $$. 🙂
 * My opinion: I use the 2.0.x branch, like vkaryl 2.1.x didnt introduce anything
   I needed. In fact, its arguable that things got introduced that _no-one_ needed.
 * I recommend taking a look through the forums and Google. There’s a lot of information,
   I realize.
 * I will say, in an admittedly bias voice, that I think 2.0. is more stable. That’s
   just MY pov, though. 🙂

 * appreciate your comments.
 * your pov matters.
 * i am wp novice, know next-to-nothing.
 * stability is big consideration for me. unstable features are not what i want.
 * when you say “branch”, it makes me feel that > never will the two meet .. that
   they will continue to divert off to different paths.
 * .. which sounds incorrect. why do you use the word “branch”?
 * i can wait for a better release. no hurry, since i have mt installed & running.
