John James Jacoby has announced that version 1.2.6 of BuddyPress is now available for download. This is primarily a bug fix release, with 100 bug fixes in total.

Jacoby said that this has been the longest release cycle in BuddyPress history (3 months since the last release, four months since 1.2.5 itself).

The next version of BuddyPress, Jacoby says, will be available by the end of the year. Jacoby also says the two new additions to the core committers team will help with speedier updates in the future.
