Mozilla announced a new microformats add-on called operator that’s helped me identify some of the errors in disconnected’s hCard/hAtom markup.  Accordingly, there will be a 1.2.1 soon. you can check out the changes on this blog, which is running on the SVN version of the theme.

With the arrival of wordpress 2.1, andy’s comment about database tables has finally come around and bitten disconnected and the links list. I added version 1.1.1r2 to the list of incompatible themes, which made me very sad. i haven’t updated the theme in forever, so even though it’s just a maintenance release, there are a lot of changes:

• Disabled the linkslist widget for anyone running 2.1 or above. (it’s still there for anyone on wordpress 2.0.x) It’s been removed entirely from the non-widgetized sidebar. if you’re not using widgets, and not upgrading to wordpress 2.1, don’t bother upgrading.
• added hAtom support (i think. there’s no validator, and i’m not sure how to check it against a schema)
• added smackfoo’s javascript
• added a version check script (in case my hAtom support isn’t right), like the screenshot up above
  
• fixed a bug in the tag page
• renamed the archive template to match other themes (you’ll have to switch the page template if you’re upgrading, but if you’re switching themes, it will probably be the same as your archive template).
• added a meta description tag to the head of the document
• added SEO friendly titles
• added some standard classes to use in posts
• added the custom header option.
