vB.Org System

I just wanted to provide a quick update on the status of the vB4 Alpha testing program.
We have already released Alpha 2 to the test team. As you would expect this version provided a number of bug fixes and incorporated some of the very useful suggestions coming from the testers.
To date most of the reported bugs have to do with relatively easy-to-fix template issues. However as with any Alpha version there have been a number of code bugs uncovered. To that end we have set up a bug-scrubbing operation to help identify, prioritize and streamline the debugging process. The primary goal is to deal with the most critical bugs first so we can get the software ready for Beta release.
In addition the style has been further refined from what the previous mockup pictures have shown. Plus there are some new icons and images to go along with the style that are a much better fit than the old vB 3.x images.
And finally as some of you have noticed from Freddie's Blog (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/blog.php?b=2371) we have added a Video BB Code to the editor bar. This allows for seamless inclusion of several video formats, which currently includes:
YouTube
Vimeo
DailyMotion
Hulu
Metacafe
UStream As with any updates please be aware that this is not all-inclusive nor does it represent the final list of improvements and features. We will continue to update you as new info is available for sharing.
