Foren-Version: 4
Release: 6
Datum: 28. August 2009
The August release included some new features, bug fixes and an update to the Forums NNTP Bridge Beta.
New Features
- Related Threads
This feature was implemented initially in the answers brand forums last month and we are going to turn this on soon for the rest of the branded forums, likely early next week. This feature gives users more helpful options when landing at a thread page from an external search engine.
- "Need an Answer" (answers brand only)
This feature is implemented only on the Answers brand forums, focusing on the consumer forums. The feature allows users to declare they also need an answer to a particular question. The feature is intended to enable a few key scenarios.
- Allows users to quickly subscribe a question so when an answer is provided, they receive a Live Alert
- Increments a value to help enable teams to gauge the impact of a particular answer
- Enables answer providers and markers the ability to filter and sort by questions that the most users are waiting on
- Informs forum owner which questions impact the most users
- Help reduce duplicate questions by enable users to get answers to existing ones
The feature is one of a few changes to enrich the experience for users landing on a forums thread from a search engine, giving them additional options to participate.

The drab default redundant user avatars are now random images.
Forums NNTP Bridge August Beta
The Forums NNTP Client Bridge is a .Net client application a user can install to configure their NNTP Reader of choice to read and post to forums. The August beta is the latest beta update, prior betas were only made available to MVPs and Microsoft affiliated users. More information on how to get up and running on the client bridge can be found in a Microsoft Connect. Users can download the bits, try them out and log bugs at the connection.
