#89400 - 01/24/06 03:05 PM Next Gen. Upgrade & mods

Hello (6.7.1)

I've been keeping my board up to date over the years, but I've let things slip a little, recently.

I am still running 6.7.1 because I thought (at the time) this would have been the last ubb release.

Anyhow, with that thought in mind - I installed some very minor UBBDev hacks. (Flags and Admin-password)

Although I could reset my board to the pre 6.7.1 settings, I was wondering whether I could be lazy and just wait for the next gen product and upgrade from there?

Or will everyone have to be at 6.7.3 (or latest) at the time of release?

Thanks

I'll have to defer this question to Charles Capps. He would be the person that would be able to tell you that information.

IMO, there isn't any big reason to upgrade within 6.7.x until we're ready for the "NextGen" product; myself i'm staying with 6.7.2 until then, the only reason to upgrade for me is for the upgrades to the importer...

Well, if you're not planning on exporting to another forum type there is no reason to upgrade just for the importer

You will need to upgrade in order to move to "NextGen"... however, it won't be to 6.7.3, but to a new version of Classic that will be released around the same time.

Ah ha! Good to know this.

So, presumably, all boards will upgrade only when *not* mod'ed....?

(Which isn't unreasonable.)

Perhaps in a month, or a year at least? ANY information?
