Those are not fresh news so you could already know it, I write them here for who don’t and for leaving a bunch of useful links in a convenient place :)

  1. BuddyPress Album is being renamed to BuddyPress Media that better reflects the plugin scope and features. It’s a work-in-progress so you’ll probably see it called in both ways.

If you are not interested in following BP Media development you can stop reading here, you only need to know that:
