“Oh no.. not another minor upgrade!”
Did that thought cross your mind when you found out that Wordpress 2.5.1 was released? I know I did.. given that I have 6 blogs to attend to.
If you installed Wordpress using Cpanel/Fantastico, you can probably wait a few more days before doing a fuss-free upgrading (though some users have reported problems with this method).
You can also install the Wordpress Automatic Upgrade plugin which, in Keith’s word, helps you to easily upgrade your wordpress installation to the latest version provided by wordpress, without having to download or upload any files. This plugin has proven useful for those who got it to work.
I promise myself to try out Keith’s plugin one day but for now, I’m still doing manual upgrading. I just feel more secure and in control 
To shave time off the manual upgrade method, you can upload the changed files (98 files) instead of the whole 2.5.1 package (531 files). That should therotically save you 80% of your time. To download the changed files package, visit this link, scroll to the bottom and click on Zip Archive to start download. Happy upgrading!

I’ve tried the autmatic upgrade… worked excellent on my previous host. My current host (nearlyfreespeech.net) isn’t supported, so I’m headed in the trac direction. Thanks for the link.
