sorry, i fear that is not possible. You can follow the release process in our project release tracker, available here: http://www.dotnetnuke.com/Products/Development/ProjectReleaseTracking/tabid/997/Default.aspx

As you can see, the forums module hasn't entered the tracker yet, so release is not very soon. Since the forum module is a large module, it will take quite some time to pass the release tracker...

One thing you could do to speed up the process is to offer your services to the project lead....

I am not even certain what you are asking to be fixed:

1) The time out: annonymous post
2) The sucurity of the forum (CSS commands can be posted if HTML is allowed)
3) The layout (search, start and config button and missing status images)

1 - If a person times out on a site, what am I suppose to do? The core will redirect them to login, they login, where they get directed depends on several factors.
2 - All posts go through the core security filter (as they should), if there is a problem with CSS commands being accepted this needs to be taken up at the core level.
3 - There are no missing images in the released themes for the module. You can only be missing images in the forum if you are using an older theme or a custom one. I am not sure what you are referring to as the "Search, Start, Config" buttons. As for layout, major issues have been corrected (extra td, missing /tr, etc.) for the next release. However, I have stated numerous times that a major UI rewrite is required and that won't happen until post the 4.4.5 release.
