Title: 1.6 Features Last modified: August 18, 2016 --- # 1.6 Features * [Michail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michail/) * (@michail) * [20 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/) * Does anybody know if 1.6 is going to have integrated photoblogging functionality? I have been working on a Gallery Manager plugin for some time now (complete with admin pages and theme API), so I’m curious. If it does, I can just scrap it and wait for the new version. Please let me know, there’s no point in going on if nobody’s going to use it.

Any discussion about 1.6 features is, unfortunately, premature. Version 1.6 has no official release date. If you’re close to finished with your plugin, I suspect a large number of people will be interested in it for WordPress 1.5.1.2. * You’re welcome to join the WordPress hackers mailing list to discuss implementation details, and to participate in possible development. * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [20 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225295) * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_1.6](http://codex.wordpress.org/Version_1.6) * Thread Starter [Michail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michail/) * (@michail) * [20 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225297) * I’ll be releasing the first stable version next week, one way or the other. I have tried to keep the code (all 4000+ lines of it) WP compliant (-ish), but I’d really appreciate it if I could have some input from WordPress developers. I’d just like to know if I’m on the right track. Could you let me know how to join this mailing list? * Moderator [James Huff](https://wordpress.org/support/users/macmanx/) * (@macmanx) * [20 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225298) * [http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-hackers](http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-hackers) * [http://codex.wordpress.org/Mailing_Lists#Hackers](http://codex.wordpress.org/Mailing_Lists#Hackers) * Thread Starter [Michail](https://wordpress.org/support/users/michail/) * (@michail) * [20 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225300) * Thanks! I was looking for this. * [kay9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kay9/) * (@kay9) * [20 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225770) * OK, I know, there is NO official release date for WP 1.6. But are there any HINTS? * Like “Yes, in 2005”? * Or “No, NOT in 2005”? * Please, just a hint, if someone in the loop really has a clue. Come on. You know you want to tell us. * [masquerade](https://wordpress.org/support/users/masquerade/) * (@masquerade) * [20 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225771) * Quoting Matt: “when its done” * [kay9](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kay9/) * (@kay9) * [20 years, 10 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/16-features/#post-225772) * Heh.
