 Replying to [comment:70 navjotjsingh]:
 > Why the oEmbed has been disabled now? Ordinary users will find it
 frustrating that even when WP 2.9 promises oEmbeds, it is still not
 enabled and available?

 oEmbed is '''not''' disabled, it's merely limited to a whitelist for
 security purposes.

 And is it really that hard to install a plugin?
