I also seems that the person who wrote the UTW plug-in has gotten tired of chasing the multiple WP upgrades and is no longer developing the plug-in.

So unless you want to edit every post and add your tag list, there is no easy way to do it.

I had a new fetish blog on my projects list until I installed the WP 2.3x and a copy of BA and found out there's no good way to handle the tagging arrangement I wanted to use. The UTW plugin won't work with the new WP and the same (or very similar) problems using BA's tagging method with WP 2.3x.

Right now I'm waiting to see what the next version of BA looks like. I'm hoping Kaktus builds in a way to add tags there and have them appear correctly in WP 2.3x versions. Also, I'm sure there will be more plugins for the +2.3x versions of WP once developers have had time to, well, develop them.

In the meantime, I have blogs still running on WP 2.0x which are doing just what I want them to do. I like some of the new features in 2.3x but for me it's not ready for production use until BA and some other plugins catch up with how it does things.

The problem is that WP seems to be releasing a "new version" about every six weeks. Or at least an updated version. In my estimation thats way too often, it can't be fully debugged and never really gives the plug-in builders time to catch up.
