Hi,
Does anyone know if there has been some behind the scene progress? The release tracker is last updated 10 days ago. Is this because the core is busy with the upcomming DNN 4.6 or because some issues surfaced for the forum module and it has to re-enter the release tracker once more?
I would appreciate if someone could provide us with some inside info.
Thanks,
Marc
I wondering too...
It's has been delayed for months. The team say that this version is a big change (asp 1.1 to asp 2.0) so... you need to wait. There are important users arround DNN that gave up to the 'new' forum module...just try to do a search on this forum. I am keep using the current forum module, but I do not know if I can hold of forever. The current version has A LOT OF BUGS, and I fixed the most important ones, but...did not work OK with avatars, images, files/documents, notifications, etc.
Crispy has been working hard a lot, but I cannot understand why he is not pushing the process to get done. It is really necesary a 'good' version of the forum.
MHuijbregts, Back to march, when was planning to release the Forum Module (v4.4.0), there was arroung the release process of the DotNetNule v4.5.0., some thought but I was wrong, the 'new version of DNN" was out, and the forum module team just promote a new uncomming version...

The new version of the forum module IS very close to be released. However, has been 'very' close since february 2007, I think there is a strategic decision behind us that keep this version not to the public yet...
