Hey, I just saw the front page saying 4.7 is officially out there.
I haven't released my drupal site yet, but I've been making quite a few modules for 4.6.
I think I'll go ahead and convert what I have to 4.7 before I release, but I just wanted to find out if there are any 4.7 gotchas I should be concerned about.
Thanks

Check out this Drupal 4.7 site loaded yesterday
Hello
Plrase see http://paratlane.net which I have loaded yesterday.
See the error messages. I have had big problems trying out the different themes. Evrytime changed one it took several reloading to get the new theme . In some case I nearly lost the menu and means to access the admin menu. Deleting the references of the offending theme from the database did not help. Finally just before reloading the database I emptied the cache from the database and luckily got the bluemarine theme back.
So be careful with the themes. Also the Image loading doesn't work even after trying all three modules available in the contributions.
Some of the RSS feeds are not working in the aggregator. I tried with new ones which seem to work.
Overall DRUPAL4.7 has amazing features and extremely configurable once you get the hang of it.
Many thanks for the DRUPAL team for such feature rich software.

A great deal for business.

Converting modules is quite a 'gotcha' ;)
Here is a long list of changes that need to be done to convert 4.6 modules to 4.7.
So if you have custom stuff you'll need to port it first. Many of the contrib modules are already ported.
