Hi Chuck,

Given the activities on vB4 at the moment, can we get an update on what to expect from PhotoPost?

I'll definitely be moving my main site to the new Suite, because I need to. I've been needing an integrated CMS solution with the forum for years now and am very anxious to get on with it.

But the PhotoPost Gallery is also mission critical to my site. I have over 11,000 photos and over 46,000 comments.

But part of what I would really like is for the photopost UI to be more integrated with the vB template. While I've tried to get them as close as possible, it hasn't been as good as I would have liked. And now, vB4 has an entirely new, proprietary templating system.

So, while I'm anxious to move to the new platform as soon as vB4 CMS is out--which COULD be next month (I'm assuming certainly within the next 3 months)--since you haven't been involved in the Alpha and from the sounds of the posts about this, you haven't been able to make any progress with them, what are your expectations? Given a few different assumptions about access, what are your worst case, likely case, best case scenarios for us customers of PP regarding timing of vB4 and compatibility?

Thanks.
