MyBB 1.4.5 was released a little over a week ago, and I have been monitoring the release and so far we’ve only had a few regressions pop-up. This release was a very successful release to say the least. It’s gone through:

Developer Testing
SQA Testing
A Private, 2-week, beta test

SQA Testing has proven to be a very successful team, spotting errors in fixes and code the developers have written. The private beta identified 19 new issues that were fixed for MyBB 1.4.5 and also confirmed 39 fixes (the fixes that weren’t already confirmed by SQA) were working and if not were fixed to work.

Not being under the pressure of having to make a release because of a security bulletin has made this a great release as well as it wasn’t “rushed,” unlike past released. We’ve also had a fairly decent staff restructure and things are running more smoothly now. A blog post on the exacts of the staff restructure will be made in the following weeks, on the Official MyBB Blog.

MyBB Team Positions

We’re always looking out for new potential. If you want to be on the MyBB Team, you just have to show:

You are dedicated and active to the project
You speak English very well and have good communication skills
You have good knowledge of how MyBB works and in the position you want to take up

If you don’t feel like we’re noticing you it’s probably just because we’re too busy making the next version of MyBB! So just shoot a Team Leader a Private Message to get their attention. Remember though, your chances are considerably increased if you stand out with the three suggestions listed above.
