I am wanting to start a new board, however, do you think I may as well wait for the release of 3.7 rather than using 3.6.8?

It depends. It is very easy to upgrade an unmodified board, so if you aren't going to be installing any hacks on your board, then I wouldn't worry about starting with 3.6.8. It also depends on how long you want to wait to start your board. As far as I know, there is no set release date for 3.7, so you could end up waiting a while if you want to wait for 3.7 to be released.

well... i like vb3.7... but i have lots of modification installed on my board... so it will kinda hard for me to upgrade..
yet whhen it come out... there will be no mods or skin for it...

Okay - I may simply install and do no edits/mods (just organize, etc.). Would it then be easy to upgrade to the latest version when it comes out?

I would guess that with no edits/mods an upgrade would be very easy. Of course, I've never actually done an upgrade with no edits or mods....

Upgrading is very easy, especially with a "virgin" board (no mods installed).

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
