See, there were 3000+ WP plugins by November 2008. The list of them that works in WP2.8 (as documented in http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugins/P...patibility/2.8 ) is the following:



256 plugins. less than 10% of the active documented plugins less than 1 year ago. It's safe to assume somebody using WP1.5 will have trouble with his/her plugins, unless he's using only that lucky 8-10% of working plugins. And if not, he'll need plugins and databases updated. Probably plugins will need to be replaced and databases converted. if you can do that kind of work for $20, I've shitloads of work for you. Just convert, rebuild and test databases takes me several hours (I'm pretty dumb, I admit it), so I'd be happy to give that work to anyone willing to do it for 5 or 20 buck as I saw in this thread

Anyway, just guessing, because to be honest I have no fucking idea, just talking out of my ass
