Ultimately the release dates are almost always an estimate and we do our best based on the information and resources we have at the time of when we’ll be done with the current fixes. However, continuous improvement is something we constantly strive for and, as a result, we are currently re-evaluating our process to make it better.

I wanted to chime in and let people know that we are working on fixing bugs in the 3.8.x series for 3.8.5. Based on our current progress we are looking forward to releasing 3.8.5 in early March. As we get closer to a specific release date I’ll keep this thread updated.

I am very happy to announce that we have added two temporary volunteer members to the vBulletin Team, PitchouneN64ngc (Yves) and Darkshenron (Sebastiano).

They will be helping us go though and confirm / prioritize / reproduce the bugs that have been reported. They have been very active in the vBulletin Project helping out fellow users and providing suggestions and we’re glad to have their continued help.

Please join me in welcoming PitchouneN64ngc and Darkshenron to the Team!

I am pleased to announce that we have added Lynne to help out with forum support over the next 30 days. Lynne has been working with vBulletin for six years and has been a part of the vBulletin.org staff for the last two years. Her extensive knowledge and experience with vBulletin will be a great asset to us and our customers.

Please join me in welcoming Lynne to the staff!
