I doubt IB bought Jelsoft to run it into the ground. give them some time before making such conclusions. Granted all the people who developed it have left, but go read the comments that have been made about the direction the software was going while they were there, and now that they're moving on people are still +++++ing that its dying....

I'm curious. I believe Jelsoft is based in the UK. IB is in California.

Have any of the designers/coders from California been let go or are they all from the UK?

i would`nt worrie much about the designers/coders leaving as they can easy be replaced with new staff.
The only thing u have to worry about is the price going up.

Right, just bring in a bunch newbies. That's always better than keeping experienced staff.

Why? I mean, prices go up for about every thing, every year. Just as in the grocery store, you can choose to purchase it, or choose not to.

They do quite frequently - it's called vB 4.0 - and previews and raucous conversations about it are posted all over http://vbulletin.com

Yeah - there are definitely questions: Is IB simply cleaning out the old coders, bringing in new? Is similar situation gonna happen here with vB.org's Staff? Is IB looking for would-be raucous Staff Members like Jacquii? The list goes on and on...

Perhaps some questions will be answered in an official vB announcement once we get closer to the 4.0 version release = who knows...? ((ha - another question.))

Jacquii.
