Maybe we could all chip in and buy a license for them so that they can integrate it?

For those that are interested, be sure to read that thread. We are definitely making progress.

... how neat! Mambo is great (not as great as typo3, but soooooooo much easier).

I'm personally excited for the next version (5.0) as I need more control of individual users and usergroups, but if this was to be integrated fully it would take control over that which would be awesome.

Typo3 is great too, but it take much longer to actually use to its full extent. It is just too big for my next project.

Top, so that more people see this.

I'm willing to pay for a hack that intergrates the two DBs together. Drop me a line.

This should be pretty easy. The Mambo user DB is pretty small (only a handful of fields. The vBulletin DB would be the point of record.

Yes but do you only want to merge the DBs together or also integrate Mambo into vB (or vice versa)? The first can be done easily; the second I dunno.

Just the first (have a vBulletin login also work for Mambo). I suspect this would involve changing all user references in the Mambo code to point towards the vB DB. Any Mambo-specific fields would be added to the vB DB as hidden user fields.

Well, conceptually that's how it would work, I think. :)

Somebody is working on this... not sure if it's the same somebody already mentioned earlier.

I just released the first beta today and have started work on the next release.
