Alpha testing has started for vBulletin 4.0 Forums
 

We hit an important milestone this morning, with the vB team publishing the first alpha release of vBulletin 4.0 Forums to the alpha team.

The alpha cycle is special in that it is released far earlier in vBulletin's development cycle than betas, the goal being to get more eyes on the product and get it running in more environments as soon as the product is installable, well before we reach the beta stage.

As soon as it is ready (in a few weeks), we will release the alpha version of vBulletin 4.0 Suite to the alpha team, and I'll keep you posted on how each release progresses.
