It seems that the standard WordPress 2.7 release will occur sometime around December 10, 2008, according to a comment that Lorelle tracked along a post over at the Blog Herald with a comment from Jane Wells about the eventual FCS date.
Remember Jane? No? Okay, check out her lil’ blog hosted at WordPress.com. You’ll notice something [...]

Well, sort of…
Ryan remarks on his blog that, while WordPress 2.7 has actually been somewhat operating at WordPress.com already, the admin console will not be available until tomorrow (which is what Jane had said yesterday). Even worse, Ryan says that the FCS release for everybody won’t be available until “sometime next week”:

Jane posted earlier today that WordPress 2.7 will be “coming to WordPress.com” in two days. Here’s an excerpt of the beginning portion of her post that will clear up some of the confusion:
As promised, here is the advance notice that WordPress 2.7 is coming to WordPress.com, and will go live on Thursday, December 4, 2008 [...]

Jane says that WordPress 2.7 development is rolling along fine, but the original November 10, 2008 release date has been pushed back toward the “end of November” (2008).

Peter Westwood has described in his blog an attempt by an unscrupulous punk to distribute a trojaned version of WordPress.
Warning to WordPress Developers, Users, and Aficionados
We at DevPal and Javamancy do not condone retrieval of un-vetted copies of the WordPress software. When downloading WordPress, please fetch it directly from wordpress.org; rather than blindly following others’ links, [...]
