With some of our forums they may stay version 3 indefinitely given the integrations with third party software and the mods that are embedded within the basic essence of the site. Right now I think version 3.x of the forums does what forums do well - create communications for people. The cost to migrate some of these sites to 4.x is just too high and 4.x doesn't provide major benefits over 3.x for what we provide. We'll too wait to see just how many developer remain here and will keep giving away their mods for free. It's difficult to say now who will and who won't support modifications for 4.x and, if so, at what price.
