An update to the WLW 1.0 Beta has been released. Posting with it now...

Install was smooth, upgrading my existing install in-place, and best of all my plugin still works (yeah!).

BTW, This weekend I plan on finishing up v1.2 of my plugin (addressing remaining Code Analysis items, adding an About box, etc) and submitting it to the WLW Gallery.  ;)

Biggest thing I like so far in this WLW update? The ability to cut-n-paste in the Title region... It's always the little things isn't it?

Things I need to submit as feedback;

• When inserting a Link, if the Clipboard contains a URL, prepopulate the Link URL: field.
• Add a Paste Special or Paste as Plain Text option
• Provide real time spell and grammar checking (i.e. like Word)(I'd bet big this is already on their list...)
