FYI, sticky posts are in core of 2.7.

@Jane - Thanks for the note, Jane! I think we mentioned that but I can never be sure.

Even sticky posts will be in core of 2.7, I guess Kym is going to keep the Plugin (deactivated of course) to have a stable number of Plugins in his WP installation

Great show guys. I was going to joke around and tell Kym that his pick of the week is now a core feature but others have said it before me
There is no denying it, Kym has a very strong feminine side

@Jane - Thanks for the note Jane. Yep we know it’s standard in the 2.7 core. I guess that’s one less plugin for me in the admin panel activate.
@Nicolas - Poor plugin developer eh? Great plugin… now obsolete.
@Jeffro2pt0 - Watch it Jeffy boy!! You never know when you must decide to come on WordCast again… and we’ll warp your voice every time you speak… wahaha.

@Kym
I actually signed up for Gravatar a while ago but never took the time to upload an image. Should be taken care of now
