Of course I take part in that as well. Since the devs for Wordpress.com are the devs for Wordpress.org too. We are one whole family who makes sure everyone gets the best out from it. Hell...I'm so glad I discovered 5 bugs in Wordpress to date which have been fixed in Wordpress 2.0 and consequetively on Wordpress.com as well. Haha…it’s not whether I worry or not.

Although I have not tried X-Dashboard and WP-Dash, but from your description, they sound great. However, on Wordpress.org, their admin will most likely do the upgrades when there is a new feature/version available, and we no need to worry about those so much. This is for those that are not so cutting edge like me lar :D GeminiGeek, hmmm... I am not a flickr user myself. I just use Gallery2 for my photo album, and thought it is nice too :) Edrei, yes, I know that we can customize the standalone version of Wordpress.

I think they removed it because it is buggy.

I do. Using the standalone 1.5.2 version. I have two plugins that do the job either way. X-Dashboad and WP-Dash. Both do a good job in making the Dashboard more functional. Personally I like WP-Dash because I can customise my RSS feeds directly into my Dashboard. Sadly it doesn't work yet with the new Version 2.0. It's being fixed though.
