Just a thought to all this, Theres a LOT of wordpress plugins, Maybe it'd
be better to draw up a list of plugins which are known to NOT work with
2.3? That way plugin authors can be contacted, Plugin users can submit
patches to plugin authors/etc?
Face it, Not *all* plugin authors are going to grab 2.3 betas straight
away, And for users it'd be great o be able to glance at a list of
plugins(And versions) which are known NOT to work?
Just my 2c.

I'll say this though, the devs SHOULD post about the plugin
compatibility issues SOON though. Because most of them on Matt's
original plugin compatible page will not work on 2.3. Heck, even 99%
that works with 2.2 won't either. There's ALOT that was changed from
the
lesser versions - to 2.3. Meaning, files relocated, renamed, folder
structures, etc etc.
I've heard that some plugins included upgrade-functions.php. Anything
other file reorgs causing problems?
Well, possible database errors from the users table? When I tried
installing Lester's (GamerZ) Useronline plugin, it spit a couple
database errors. I have to find the errors again, but I think it had
something to do with the row/column count was off by one.
I'm not sure if that had to do with the WP database table for sure, or
if it's his plugin. But I had talked with him on Live Messenger about
this other week, or month, and he said he'd look into it more when 2.3
went beta. Since it went beta, I haven't spoken to him about it. But
I'll ask him soon though. I'll also have to try reinstalling the plugin,
and copy/paste in the full error and let you know.
Just curious, has there been database schema changes for certain tables,
or? Like, added rows/columns or whatever in certain ones, or not? I'm
not sure what all was changed really, I'm just asking because I have
been running 2.3 since it started and I'm going by HIS plugin error. =/
I'm guessing, besides file renaming, reorgs, etc... that any possible
database changes that had been made, might throw some off. That's an IF
though.
I'm assuming you had made this (2.3) with Back Compatibility in mind
right? So, most things should be ok. I'm not sure about Category related
plugins, stat plugins and such. I guess this could be some of the things
that could fall under the "testing". =/ I'll have to reinstall his
plugin again and see what it spit. And maybe check some others too. =)
