Once we see what 3.5 is really all about we will alter things as needed.

from what we saw the current trend was that everyone hacked their betas anyway, we all knew that if you hack a beta you can't go to vb.com and ask for support and we acknowledged that when we made the mods, infact i'm pretty sure that a few people released betas as rc1 hacks as soon as it was allowed, saying that it's a half version not a full version, i see no reason not to allow users to share the modifications they'll make, vb.org is supposed to be about the user not the product (which vb.com is) penalising the user is rather pointless, if someone made it and they wanna share it, why should you say no? as i said theirs a vast difference from 2.2.x -> 3.0 and 3.0.x -> 3.5. it's even been said over at vb.com that it's likely to be minimal code changes as in find/replace for making 3.0 hacks 3.5 compatible.
