I guess it shouldn't. But seeing that vBulletin 3.0 is apparently stable enough for both vBulletin's own support forum and vBulletin.org's forum to be run on it, and their active discouragement of anything requiring code change to even be discussed anywhere, much less released, has me a littel depressed.

Combine that with the fact that vb.org hackers are apparently confident enough in the stability of the vb3.0 code to create a front page portal system for vb.org itself, but still won't allow anyone to publish similar code modifications, and you may begin to see where I'm coming from.

If it's stable enough for you guys to hack, it should be stable enough for the rest of the hackers to start publishing code. That's all I'm saying.

But, I'll climb back in my shell until RC is out. After all, it was my decision alone to upgrade early, although I wanted to be part of the debugging process.
