    This is the thing that concerns me most about building sites with WP. Because it's so popular, hackers will always target it, and WP will constantly release updates to combat the attacks. What this means is every time there is a new update I have to go back through all my client sites and perform the upgrade to prevent some worm from destroying all my previous work.

    Seems WP is the blog equivalent of Windows (in terms of ubiquity and appeal to hackers).

    • Difference being that WP is mildly easy to use and windows is a total pita. ;)

    • and that you can charge the client for all changes...ephix
