Rewriting your program or script from scratch. Matt talk briefly about it here (http://photomatt.net/2004/10/11/13-cleanup/) and also about things to come with Wordpress 1.3.
It seems as though the backend code for 1.3 is much cleaner than the current version (1.2.1), this can be seen through the alpha versions (which can be downloaded here http://wordpress.org/download/), even Matt is running Wordpress 1.3 alpha on his website.
Although I don’t use Wordpress I am looking forward to it and seeing what changes there are.
Rewriting code from scratch is always hard. You don’t want to rewrite stuff you have already done, but the problem is this code is normally out of date can could do with fixing anyway. Breaking support for old stuff is hard too, even if it is only URLs (in my case).
With my rewrite I think I’m going to have to hide the old code (or even delete it) just to make sure that I rewrite everything! (Trust me, it needs it).
