no more excuses.
 

WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!No longer can I put off new features saying 'uhh, vb3..' I can imagine that this weekend I will have the new forums up in parallel with the current ones. People can go play around & mess with it while I hack in a few chiefdelphi specific features and learn the new admin interface. I just wanted to let you all know that I can't plead the vb3rd anymore.

vb3... Friday the 13th. awesome.

So.
 

So...

::nervous pause::

do we have a toy? :)

well. we do, but if I were to announce where I have it installed, I'd be breaking the license agreement. We can technically only have one public version of vBulletin running.

I can say this, though: vB3 is awesome, but the amount of options and new features is semi-overwhelming. I have only glanced at the code once, and was amazed at the amount of changes they have made. It looks very clean & organized, but almost totally different from vB2, so it will take me some time to get the new features coded, mainly because of the new core system to learn.

Also, there are still quite a few bugs. I installed a fresh version, just to play with, and we've found alot of little things here & there that still need some work before they release the actual vb3 version. I'd expect a few more months of testing and a few more beta/release candidates before I install it on our main forums. I can, however, get going on the image gallery, white papers, and Ventures, to get them ready for next season. The base code shouldn't change too much from now->gold release.
