Does vBulletin integrate well with Drupal? If so, will vBulletin support Drupal v7 when it is released in the next few weeks (anticipated)?

vBulletin does not support Drupal out of the box. If my memory is correct there is a bridge that can link them together you should be able to find it on vbulletin.org.

A Drupal v6 version?

I only know of a Drupal v5 branch (w/vBulletin 3.7.x). Did you know of a Drupal v6 version? I would like to upgrade to Drupal 6.20 and the newest vBulletin, as Drupal v7 is a bit too new for us.

Please respond if you (or anyone) has info on Drupal v6 versions.

Alternatively, a way to go 100% from the hybrid Drupal5/VB to either Drupal6 or vBulletin4.x

Are you sure?
I see that there is indeed a Drupal vb bridge which is stable release: http://drupal.org/project/drupalvb

I myself want to buy any forum software which has a bridge with Drupal. Is there any?

That by definition, is not out of the box. That is a third party script.

Is that project even active?

This is a fork of Drupal project, which is risky to go for and upgrading later may be a hassle. Moreover it was last updated in March 2010.
Why doesn't vbulletin.com fund any such bridge? Isn't it making lion's share of all forum software sales in the world?

What is stopping vBulletin to fund such type of bridge development?
I'm ready to pay even $400 for any forum software which has a Drupal bridge. Since it isn't there, I had better go with PHPBB.

I don't want Joomla, even though it seems to have a working PHPBB bridge.

Yesterday I've done enough search. I think I should go with PHPBB+Drupal. Later if a compatible bridge is developed for vB, then I can buy a license of vB.

We don't intergrate third party software, that is whats stopping us.

Nothing is stop you, and or others to get together with people to build a bridge.

Is this DRUPAL your talking about is a software for computers or cellphones?

Really what is Skimlinks, Vertical Response, Facebook, android, iphone. Say it right you do not include third party software that customers want. I bet if you could sell the bridge and enough people were going to pay you would do it.
