My point is that Jelsoft didn't go to a software shop. That's where I see the risk. vBulletin needs the systems and tools of a real software shop to get to the next level (see: 3.67 PL1 and all the thrashing around new "products"). I was kinda holding out hope that Jelsoft would do a 4.0 version with a real Web 2.0 interface, end user "drag and drop" customization, and especially fixing that half-done calendar system.

Not slagging the existing product or the people who created it, but the rusty vB user interface needs some serious updating... and I don't see IB making that investment -- or at least sharing it with the existing base. If I'm wrong I'll admit that, but I've been in the software industry a l-o-o-o-ng time and this simply does not compute for me in any way that looks positive. Hope that's wrong.
