bbPress 1.0-alpha-3 released
Today bbPress 1.0-alpha-3 was made available via the download page.
A couple of major improvements include new re-added support for “deep” integration and a new notification system that will report fatal errors in plugins on activation. BackPress is now also up to scratch with the code it borrows from WordPress 2.7, meaning a lot of bug fixes in those files.
I need those that are interested in the “deep” integration with WordPress to do some pretty hefty testing to ensure that it is robust enough to remain as a supported option. Keep in mind that some of the existing login and cookie integration issues remain.
You can view the changes in bbPress between 1.0-alpha-2 and 1.0-alpha-3, as well as the changes that have been made to BackPress between revision 161 and 178.
Hackers out there should note that a lot of filenames have changed in the bb-includes directory.
Hi, i already test the new alpha 3 on my public forum at http://egoo.de/forum/
At the moment here is no really deep integration but if you have something i can test give me a comment.

You’re a pimp. I’d love to see the community provide you enough support to have bbPress 1.0 out by Christmas.
I’ll start using the new alpha this week and will let you know if I experience any problems.
Many thanks

Thanks for the compliment… I think. Enjoy the alpha ride.

Well done buddy. We’ll have this running on the WP e-Commerce plugin site before Friday. I’ll let you know how we get on… and speaking of pimps…

Sure Sam, thank you for the release, but I would rather wait until the final RC
