The new version just works with my internal theme better. It would take a long time to document how to implement the new version - if someone wants to pay for that time I'll be happy to do it and release it.

I’d like to see the latest WP Since Last Visit as well even if it is distributed with tons of disclaimers – “Stop do not use unless you know what you are doing”, “Unsupported so don’t email me”, etc.

I don't think there can really be such a thing as too many or too little plugins. Plugins are designed to give us extra functionality and I think if that functionality is wanted or needed, no harm in adding a plugin. Since they are stand-alone; they shouldn't interfere with anything else on the blog. I completely agree with you about writing plugins. Well over a year ago I wrote a plugin for myself and I had started to get it ready for release but then I just got bus with other things Just recently I picked it back up and it has been a major chore to really get it to work so someone can just drag and drop it into multiple versions of WP. My most recent conflict was when I upgraded to php5 on my new server. So hopefully it will be released before the new year. Keep up the good work! It was a great list Alex.

Different developers have different thoughts on this subject. Can you describe why you chose to do it the way you did? Just curious.

Your since-last-visit plugin looks great (as it appears on your site) and I'm hoping to install it on my site. I like the plugin infrastructure as well.
