thanks Matt,

don't particularly like the change, but I can now see why it was changed

My issue was:

slug for "Category A" in production == slug for "Category A" in development ID for "Category A" in production != ID for "Category A" in development (in most cases)

no stress, I've already got a couple of workarounds in mind.

cheers

Just installed a copy of 2.8 beta1 locally for some dev work and noticed
that a bunch of styles in my current theme no longer worked.

A bit of investigation tracked it back to the post_class() function, which
previously returned something like "category-article" etc (using the
category slug), but now appears to have been changed to return classes based
on the ID of the category instead, eg "category-107".

Did a quick search and couldn't find anything around why this might of been
changed, or if its a bug or not.

Personally I prefer "category-slug" to "category-ID" it seems more logical and easier to make use of, but perhaps it was changed for a good reason, can
anyone shed some light on this?

Looks like this was first changed in revision 11300 (10 days ago)

I believe that change actually happened in 11306
(http://core.trac.wordpress.org/changeset/11306).

The commit message was "Use IDs instead of slugs in CSS classes ro
avoid invalid class names. Props hakre. fixes #8446"

The referenced ticket is http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/8446
