Welcome to Random Bits, a new feature whereby we will share links to various noteworthy events from around the world of WordPress. Unlike the Weekly WordPress Review which focuses on tutorials and resources, Random Bits will have a broader scope covering items that fall under a more general interest type of category.

Boone Gorges announced the release of version 1.1 of the BuddyPress Template Pack. The plugin adds support for BuddyPress to your existing WordPress theme.

Matt Jones of Storefront Themes said that the process of upgrading their themes to work with WPEC 3.8 should be complete within the next couple of weeks. He's also looking for some input.
"... we [have] a few questions that we’d like some feedback on so we’ve developed a short survey and are asking for your help."
The survey itself will take only moments to complete. To generate interest, those who take the time to fill it out will be entered into a contest with the prize being not only all products currently in their inventory but everything they release until the end of 2011 as well! Two lucky winners will be chosen. Good luck to all who enter.
