sparc Posted March 13, 2009 Share Posted March 13, 2009 They're going to release it as a community project. Probably taking some time getting it updated and ready. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Matt. Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 A feature that was apart of IPB for a while, is now a community project. hmm.. strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H. Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Why is it strange? By releasing it to the community, it allows for a great deal more expandability in the module than IPS would be able to accomplish (remember the budget!), if it were still an inherent function. I applaud IPS' decision, largely because I hope to use the manager some time in the future. Some of the ideas I've seen here, for its development, are great.

Ryan H. Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 A feature that was apart of IPB for a while, is now a community project. hmm.. strange. The subscription manager is not a widely-used feature; IPS just wants to be able to spend their time expanding more useful and demanded features of IPB.

ᴡᴅツ Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 The subscription manager is not a widely-used feature; IPS just wants to be able to spend their time expanding more useful and demanded features of IPB. If it wasn't for the subscription manager, I wouldn't even be using IPB. My main concern is if there will actually be a WORKING subscription manager during the release....or do I have to wait even longer, after the release of the board, so this feature can be added....? I am waiting for the response of a staff member. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan H. Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 They said it would be included in the final release, and there are other people who also DEPEND on it [I happen to be one of those]... I would simply take them at their word and assume it's still in the works and should be seen soon. Since it looks like we'll be going to beta 5 now, maybe there...

bfarber Posted March 16, 2009 Share Posted March 16, 2009 For the record, Jason literally just finished converting the subscription manager code the other day (or most of it, some still left I think) so I'm hopeful we'll see it with beta 5.
