You cannot say it 100%, sure you will have bugs. So, you can try WordPress 3.0 RC1 on your dummy sites. If you’re a developer or testing testing out this RC1 WP3 and find bugs, you can report it via the wp-testers mailing list. So that they could rectify it before the public release of the stable version.

Some of the bugs and features fixed are –

  • Custom menus are finished!
  • Multi-site is all set.
  • Appearance of the admin panel is lightened up, so as not to distract attention from the content
