With beta releases currently being tested, we expect to upgrade to Invision Power Board 3.1 (our forum software) within the next two to three months. We also plan to install IP.Commerce, Invision Power's new shopping cart and market application when it is released. We will announce our plans for the market application at a later date. This post outlines what new features will be available with the upgraded forum software.
