I finally got around to upgrading this blog to the latest WordPress. the straw the broke the camel’s back - so to speak - was that Windows Live Writer now supports more XMLRPC interfaces included creating categories (in addition to just selecting from existing ones). There are also more complete interactions thru the XMLRPC interface.

I still have a couple of “enhancements” (or “hacks” depending on your point of view). These I must manually edit back into the code stream each time I update. These include the ability to turn off the implicit output from wp_list_categories() function. I need to get back the output for further markup so I don’t want the function to stream the output automatically. I also still tweak the “more” behavior. WLW includes a new-line when I insert the break for excerpt and I usually want the “more” tag to fall right at the end of the line.
