That worked out to my advantage as it turns out that some ‘buglets’ slipped through quality assurance testing and now they’re going to have to release a 2.0.4 version shortly to fix the bugs that 2.0.3 introduced.

I hate when those kind of timing issues happen, too! @Scott -- what you're seeing is the "are you sure" bug. turns out this release wasn't so stable after all. there is a plugin that is supposed to help fix the bug until 2.0.4 is released (which is reported to be coming soon) -- see my next post for the link to it @Paul - wise move as it turned out this upgrade would have burned you, as well. I also decided to wait a bit before upgrading and turns out that should probably be the standard mode of operating when it comes to wordpress upgrades. When its clear the kinks are worked out, then go ahead and do the upgrade. @Joefish — isn’t that always the case?? I hate when those kind of timing issues happen, too!

Let me know how it works. I've been burned by upgrades at times, and want to wait for a bit. Thanks for the heads up! Let me know how it works.

Suddenly I'm seeing this odd "Are you sure you want to do this?" screen and the revised comment gets escaped. Huh? Still, upgrading was easy and painless.

I just finished converting a 350 post, 6000 comment archive from flat HTML files to the mtimport format so I could get all of it into my WordPress. I worked through the quirks and finished my import. The very next day WP released this upgrade with a new and improved MT importer. Damn. For strictly personal reasons, the timing of this annoys me.
