WordPress anounced the latest upgrade last week, and I am just getting around to checking it out. I normally wait a respectful amount of time to elapse before uploading to allow the more adventurous users to find the flaws. This time it appears Matt and Company have done their homework and this upgrade should be made immediately. WordPress on their site says:

WordPress 2.0.4, the latest stable release in our Duke series, is available for immediate download. This release contains several important security fixes, so it’s highly recommended for all users. We’ve also rolled in a number of bug fixes (over 50!), so it’s a pretty solid release across the board.

Upgrading is fairly simple, just overwrite your old files with the latest from the download. If you’d like more thorough instructions, the Codex is always the best spot.

So download and upload. Enjoy the newest of the greatest. Seriously. Get it today.
