About 2/5 down the screen you see: “New User Default Role” with a drop-down box. Set that to “Author” and save.

Yes would second the idea, to separate update of WordPress core, from the updates of Twenty-Ten Theme.
Reading through Trac, I learned that in 3.0.1 the only update for Twenty Ten Style-sheet css, is clean up and commenting code. Some of our installations use Twenty Ten, but with some minor changes, that we now need to repeat as the auto-update will overwrite the style sheet.
As an volunteer administrator and support person for nonprofits, I wouldn’t need to worry about some of our installations, and just tell everyone to do the auto-update.
What would be a two liner e-mail of ‘Go ahead’ and not worry, is now a “Go only ahead’ if you haven’t modified your style-sheet.
5 or of ten have. 2 our of 5 will go ahead anyway, and will be surprised that their blog looks slightly different from what they used to have.
Please consider a desynchronized update cycle between Theme Twenty Ten and WP. Let me know if there is something I can do to help you implement this.
Thanks.
