Will, please feel free to point out any issues as I am going to launch a Beta this weekend. (Although I can understand why you may not want to, but if its something you don't want to deal w/ on DNN please bring it on!)

Will can definitely speak for himself, but I do want to add a couple things.

• I have never heard anyone complain about Active Forums like this before.
• Active Modules can provide a better support solution than I can because of its dedicated resources.

I hate to say its a pay what you get for type of thing but in some situations it is. While I attempt to provide a solid out of the box product and support it with documentation and answering forum posts, I cannot have the same turn around time as a paid for solution. I am pretty good about answering all forum posts here in a day or two depending on whats going on with me, but I also understand this is not acceptable in all situations. Honestly, in the past I have even recommended Active Forums to clients depending on their situation (and as long as they didn't require custom changes).

A person not willing to upgrade the site is not a problem with the forums.  For the forums to support certain features, it requires some base level of support from the framework.  This is not uncommon for any product across a wide range of platforms, not just DotNetNuke.  Nobody would say that we abandoned DotNetNuke because we stopped supporting MS Access.  It is a fact of life in the digital world that sometimes to get the latest product features, you have to also be running the latest platform.
