[wp-testers] Number of "Updates" still show available after upgrade.

[Kirk M]

Afternoon Dion,

Work in progress? So am I for that matter. ;-) That's why I've always 
enjoyed testing new WordPress versions while they're still under 
development.

After a fair night's sleep and 2 cups of coffee, I found I had one theme 
indicating an update available (oops) but all plugins were at the latest 
version. Deleting the theme left me with one update available showing 
(I'm using the WP Beta Tester plugin set to "Bleeding edge nightlies"). 
Once I auto-upgraded to the latest nightly build, Updates went to zero 
(no number shown). I understand the latest version won't count dev 
installs any longer.

That being said, I'm pleasantly surprised that WP 3.0 is so stable even 
at this very early stage. So far, all the error logs are clear, even for 
plugins: Just for info's sake, The following plugins are working fine so 
far in WP 3.0-alpha: (could you possibly mess things up a bit so I'd 
have something to report?)
