I tried it yesterday with one of my dev blogs and it didn't seem any different. I wasn't using kubrick on my other blog and am wondering how 1.5 will effect that installation.

Completely new admin interface, and a bunch of other changes under the hood. You don't _have_ to use themes, but they sure do make it easy and clean to customize the layout. The "public" output may not look any different, but you'll notice it. The only issue I have now, is I can't use XML-RPC to edit posts. I can post new ones using MarsEdit, but editing posts has some kind of issue, and the edited posts are bumped into "Draft" mode (becoming invisible to viewers until I open the Admin interface and re-publish the post). If you don't use XML-RPC to post/edit, then it's no biggie... If you’re using 1.2, it’s totally worth it. Completely new admin interface, and a bunch of other changes under the hood.
