Most of the staff (all?) have actually offered to put time and effort into creating a better vB.org for all. However, we're still waiting on vBulletin 4 and its style/API to stabilise before starting any major work.

Hence why I think it would be useful to have the possiblity to set multiple compatible versions.
(That's how it is done at vBulletin-Germany.org; we've got only one category for releases).

How about a break at 4.0 -- add-ons for 3.x series and prior are left untouched, and a new add-on management backend for 4.0 and higher? If vb.org upgrades to vB 4, then the vb.org backend would have to be rewritten anyway. So for the sake of simplicity, think of this idea as two seperate forums under vbulletin.org -- the existing one for 3.x, and a vB4 installation to support vB4 mods.

A new backend for 4.0 series mods could then take into account multiple versions, and maybe allow implemention of some of the ideas Floris and others have proposed in Hatchery.

This way the vb.org mod team doesn't have to reclassify 3.x series mods, or combine several identical 3.x series releases into one "final" release (which, btw, would break bookmarks unless the moderators left a bunch of forwarding links).

I'm keeping my mouth shut about wanting stuff here on the org unless someone prods me with a stick, not meaning that to sound bad what I mean is I know you admins and moderators here are dying to try new functions here.. probably been brainstorming for months now so I'm honestly wanting to be surprised with it... don't even hint at it just switch the style one day :D
