No need for it to. I doubt vB5 offers anything useful for sharing modifications. Everything would have to be rewritten here, and honestly they should devote any spare time to making vB5 better faster.

J.
No it doesn't.

vBulletin 5 Connect makes significant advances in the capabilities of online community websites, and is clearly the premier platform on which to build such sites.
Of course vb.org it will be upgraded soon, as has been said, v5 is clearly the premier platform.

However I personally may just wait a year or two.

Nonsense, the site would run perfectly well on vB4.

The only reason it isnt is exactly the same reason its not even on 3.7 or 3.8 - the amount of time it would take to update all the plugins, templates & customisations.

Its quite invloved just to do it for 3.8, its a huge amount of work for 4.2.

As i said in a previous thread with exactly the same title only citing vb4, it works perfect for the type of community/niche, upgrading would not add any value or function that is needed here - it's not broke so don't try and fix it!

No offense, but rubbish! "We're running 3.7 because the community doesn't need to upgrade to a POS. Besides, the site is running just fine as-is. If it ain't broke. Don't fix it!" AN EXCUSE for shoddy software.

An official website of vBulletin should be running the latest, greatest version of its product, if only to show prospective customers how sweet the script is. The failure to do so -- even on the humungous bulk of IB-owned forums -- is telling. This is my opinion anyway...

And not that I care mind you. I'm a fan of the vB 3.8.x series and would love to see vB.org upgraded to it. From the sounds of it - vB 7-8 would have been released and vB.org still on 3.7 because "the site is just fine as-is" ((sigh...))

That is what vbulletin.com will do. I am sure that when vB5 is ready to go Gold, they will upgrade vbulletin.com. There is no need to upgrade vbulletin.org to vB5 also.

God I certainly hope not LOL
I am shocked at the vB 5 Connect demo thus far... Hopefully it gets better.

logic so far would be respected if vb.org run on vB 6.0∫ ... isn't it a development site anyway ?! ;)

... i've seen that when working at IPB... :)

Nope.

There is absolutely no reason for this, its just a "rule" that people make up when trying to knock IB or vB. It has no validity in the real world.
