What's next for vBulletin??

[kevinmanphp]

So what's next in development for the vB Team??? Will there be work commencing on a vB 4.0?? I'd be interested in hearing the plans. Keep up the good work.

vB4.0 has been mentioned a few times, and I believe Kier also mentioned vB3.6 ... I know that they're also developing a blog, a cms, and a bug report system. There might be a few other things here and there that utilize their plugin system (to show off its powers)

I've been told by my sources that they're building a giant robot capable of destroying cities but it will be used as a catapult to avoid traffic cameras in the UK or make 30 foot pancakes or something.But ofcourse, that's just what they say

I am after a CMS (10+ copies as I can afford them), Blog (2 copies), Gallery (5 copies as I can afford them). Oh and I will only buy Jelsoft. Also a chat would also buy 2 copies.

Don't expect much of an answer, vBulletin staff are very vague about future versions of vB.

I would not mention anything big coming out? I would let my competitors keep on guessing.

maybe they're working on the drag and drop technology.

Mmmmmn. A blog. Sounds nice. It would be good if that was included in the vB License, instead of that silly IPB thing where you gotta buy it seperately; that sucked.

I believe the blog will be free (these are just my assumptions, not the views of Jelsoft)... but the cms will more than likely not be. It is, after all, a completely different product.

Word on the street is the vB team is working on MICROPHONE SUPPORT!!! Speech recognition enabled vBulletin Forums are the future. No longer will your carpal tunnel act up from long posts. Speak to the new Jelsoft Plugin.

That would be amazing. Imagine how many posts would be able to be made without even pressing a button.

For the speech support, there would have to be some kind of keyword to keep the mboard from getting filled up when talking on the phone or over a beer.

[Colin F]

Speech support is something that would be controlled by the browser and not by vBulletin
With the appropriate plugins/software, it's actually possible now already.

Imagine ... the bandwidth !!!

Imagine ... the bandwidth !!!

And the network bottleneck of 200+ people jabbing through a shared 3mbit connection.

I'd take a CMS and blog (as long as it's truly xhtml <-- so not to spend eons stripping legacy code to have a forum that's doesn't have valign, <br>, presentation code all over the templates. Jelsoft, have someone delegated to just revamp the xhtml and get it up to snuff).
