Because releasing vB3 hacks is presently against the rules (vB3 is still beta), only a vB2 hack can be publicly released

Well, that's ok, because I did say that we should start with VB2.3 now and then start on a VB3 one when it was gold.
Besides... we could start a VB3 hack now... just couldn't release it now. Certainly this should be encouraged since a lot of functionality provided by hacks in VB2.3 won't be there when VB3 does go gold, and thus to receive widespread support of VB3 and the continuity of user experience on these boards from the outset... hack makers should be encouraged to start thinking about such things and converting. If you want an example of when this sort of thing happened in the past, just think of the WinAmp debacle. WinAmp3 lacked skins, plugins, etc and this was a considerable factor in everyone I know staying with what they were comfortable with.
Either way... whilst I would need continuity (a hack I have in VB2.3 to exist for VB3 immediately after it went gold) I still actually said that we should do a VB2.3 one now, and thus this isn't the place for such a discussion or debate.
