<b>vBulletin 3.0.0 Beta 5</b>
We are now proud to release vBulletin 3.0.0 Beta 5 to our customers. This release is predominantly an exercise in bug-fixing, although there has been some major work on the language system.
<b>Language System</b>
A lot of work has been put into re-phrasing a lot of the control panel text, following reports of problems relating to gender and plurality in non-english languages. As a result many phrases that existed in Beta 4 no longer exist, and many new phrases have been created.
We now encourage those people who intend to translate their boards into non-english languages to attempt to translate the control panel text, as available in the admin control panel language manager, and to report back if they experience any problems that we should look into.
