been using vbdrupal version 4..will wait for the final to be out for 5 before I upgrade, but happy with this integration so far.

great.*installed* and nominated for hack of the month!Great work.Thx!

How hard is this to install? looks like something I could used...

Is there supposed to be a product .xml file in the download? I may have missed it.

Very very cool!

[high]* projectego clicks install :D[/high]

For proper support please go to the vbDrupal forums. Also take note that this product is still beta. Try it on a test installation first (and, of course, make backups), specially when you are already using vbDrupal 4.7.
It only had some minor testing, mostly done by me.
Personally I wouldn't use the vbDrupal 5 series on a production server until it hits RC (=Release Candidate).
Of course, more people testing this software will most likely result in better software.
So report anything that isn't correct (including documentation errors) on the vbDrupal forums.

Upgrading from vbDrupal 4.7 should be painless, assuming you don't have any 3rd party modules and themes. If you do, you of course, should update them to Drupal 5 versions.
Upgrading from vbDrupal 4.6 should be possible, but it's not something I've tested, it's probably best to first upgrade to the latest 4.7 release.

Starting with vbDrupal 5 there is no longer a need to manually install the product .xml, this will all be done automatically during installation/update.
But if you really need to manually (re)install the vBulletin plugins and what not, the product.xml can be found in: drupal/modules/vbcore/xml

Ok This appears to be useful but I'm a little confused on what it looks like on someone's site in a "production environment". I run a World Of Warcraft Guild site and I was thinking I might be able to use this, but my thinking is a bit foggy on it's relationship to Vbulletin. Can anyone fill in the blanks for me?

Thanks much,
Jim

The default theme of vbDrupal uses the vBulletin template engine and tries to make it look as much like vBulletin as possible.
Examples of sites using the default theme (all currently run on 4.7, but for 'looks' nothing changes with 5):
http://www.unrealadmin.org/ (this one also uses vbDrupal in the forum environment for the left side menu bar)
http://www.alleria.com/
http://www.spacebuffs.com/

But of course you can also decide to use a more customized theme for the drupal side.


(non-support questions can be asked here, but preferably on the vbdrupal forums because I don't monitor this thread as much as the vbdrupal forums are monitored).

The unrealadmin.org site really almost looks like a portal, good job on that. This is running well on my system right now, and I'm working on including some plugins to improve functionality.

vbDrupal 5.2.0 RC 1 has been released
