No.

As the thread states, this refers to 3.0 (only).

Nothing is happening to the 3.5, 3.6, 3.7 or 3.8 sections :)

why no downloads possible??? whats the main reason?

I would suspect that having downloads for mods on a version that isn't supported or used anymore would cause more problems than it is worth.

I don't really see why you have to block off access to downloads of these older modifications. Sometimes you need access to old code to properly path upgrades to newer products in forums that were badly managed or poorly maintained in the past. I would have thought closing the forums to new replies and making it clear they are read only, unsupported threads would have been enough.

But this site has a whole history of yanking code and making life difficult for some of us. So I'm not surprised. :)

Thank your luck stars you have been alerted of the changes. Normally the forum would have been archived without warning. The announcements is atleast a set forward and gives people the chance to download now what they need rather than wondering what happened to the forums and unable to download anything resulting in questions being asked in the feedback area.

We have always informed our members in time before we archived a version.

and it's a good thing...

Are you sure about that? Why would brad post in feedback querying the archiving of the x2 series?

informing members was not always made by announcements sticked on top... i remember each archiving, and i knew about each of the 3 (or 4?) before they were done... i think one of them was announced inside a thread regarding upgrading the forum itself, so it was missed by a lot of people.

btw, NOW it is done for each, so i don't see why the old time is relevant.

That's probably the reason why I missed some. Marco never stated that they integrated notices of the archiving of series/versions within the upgrades announcements. I'm not the one for rushing to get the latest upgrade or hearing about the latest new spiffy release.
