Being one of the biggest blogging platforms WordPress is always evolving to meet the needs of its users. This relentless pursuit to meet users demand has put this platform ahead of other blogging platforms.

WordPress just announced its plans of the upcoming version, WordPress 2.9 to be launched in late November or early December and also made a call for testers from the ever growing WordPress community.

Here are two important things one has to do to become a WordPress tester. 1) Join the WP-Tester mailing list (click here to join the mailing list) and 2) install a plugin called “Making it easy to be a WordPress Tester” (click here to install the plugin.)

The WP-Tester mailing list keeps all its subscribers updated with the progress and need-to-know’s of the beta releases and the plugin helps in eliminating the manual steps involved in downloading and installing the latest beta releases.

As beta releases can be unstable and have bugs it is strongly recommended that the testers install a test-blog to test these builts.

As TNerd runs on WordPress as well, I am really looking forward to the WordPress 2.9 and especially a feature that Matt mentioned which clubs WordPress stand-alone and WordPress MU.
