  1. One year ago wp 2.6 was rlaeesed ! since then 11 releases !!!Sure 2.7 was a great release with the new admin UI.2.8 was also a great plugin ‘breaker’ with the javascript libraries under admin going from top of the page to bottom…About plugins, each new wp version release requires a plugin review and most of the time an update.It is quite true when your plugin has one or several admin pages.I believe that – something like – reengineering core wp admin pages as admin plugin pages, giving by the way a whole set of skeletons/classes/api would :* make the learning curve shorter for new comers to build their own plugin admin pages,* encourage the stability of code (less wp release dependant),* immediately make some wp admin pages options / api’s available for plugins : – have to dig hard in wp code to see how customize the “screen options” or “help” tabs; – making easier use of facilities such as roles/capabilities + menus, register/enqueue styles and scripts …,* give more time on plugin core functions.An example : in one of my plugin having some custom admin pages, “show on screen” options (for meta box and columns) was working correctly under 2.7, but not under 2.8hope this help !
