vBulletin Project Tools 2.0.0 Beta 1

After running Project Tools 2.0.0 Alpha 1 here on vBulletin.com since last month, we're ready to do the first public beta release. Any customer with an active Project Tools license can now download the beta.

We'd like to thank everyone that has provided suggestions and feedback or reported a bug for the Project Tools. Many of the new features in this version were added specifically because of your requests. We're sure you like the improvements.

Some of the new features in Project Tools 2 include:

• Project Subscriptions
• Notification of Issue Assignment
• Persistent Read Marking / New Post Indicators
• Issue Closing
• Improved Tracking of Private Issues and Replies
• Milestones

You can read more details in my previous announcement or in my blog.

Note: You must be running vBulletin 3.7.0 or later to install any Project Tools 2.0.0 Beta/Stable release!

Significance of a Beta Release
This is beta software. If you are not fully at home with backing-up and restoring your forum, dealing with bugs and regular upgrades, do not install this beta version.

Customers should bear in mind that this is a public beta, not a certified 'stable' release so the following caveats apply:

• Beta software is unsupported and you install beta versions at your own risk.
• Some minor bugs remain unresolved at this time, so beta software should not be on production sites.
• You should always back up your database fully before attempting to install beta software.
• If you choose to install this version, you should be aware that we plan to release new beta versions in rapid succession as bugs are fixed and holes are plugged. Do not install this beta version if you are not willing or able to keep up-to-date with new releases.
