Pre-Sale Question

[Racket]

I was just wondering when we could expect to see a Pre-Sale for XenForo?

Thank you

Please don't forget those with multiple sites - a volume discount (like vb) would be nice, too.

Agreed!

I've got 7 vB licenses and I could use some extra incentive to bring them all over

TBH, right now it's good enough to go on sale; that is, at least from a frontend perspective. Needs a number of additional feature implementations to be priced competitively to VB and IPB, but it's certainly stable enough.

I disagree, the bug list is growing still, and still being fixed, features are still being made and the admin area (from what I heard) hasn't fully completed yet. Nor has it been properly tested internally for a range of hosting/systems and configurations.

It's clearly an alpha, despite how complete and stable it feels. I suspect the roadmap for the coming months to be somewhat near this:

Summer 2010:
- demo day
- public alpha on xfcom
- processing feedback
- processing bugs
- finalizing front-end features
- finalizing back-end features
- private alpha (or pre-beta) testing
Q3/Q4 2010:
- company site online
- public beta testing

Given how I feel about the VB4 Pre-Sale experience, I am so glad you said that.

It could have been worse. Not much worse, but worse

I could have actually bought it, that would have been much worse

LOL same here. Glad I didn't get caught up in such a mess.
