很喜欢这个论坛，没想到在2025年的最后一个，官方发布了告别信，以下是告别信原文：
Hi everyone,
Vanilla has gone through quite a journey over the years, and the open source community has been at the heart of that story from the beginning. Many of you have contributed code, shared ideas, reported bugs, written plugins, and helped each other learn. You’ve shaped what Vanilla is today, and we’re deeply grateful for that.
As many of you have already noticed, the level of active support and maintenance for the Vanilla open source solution has gradually declined to the point where it really doesn’t exist. After a lot of consideration, Higher Logic has made the decision that the OSS version of Vanilla will no longer be part of the long-term vision for our community forum platform.
Here’s what that means going forward:
- We will discontinue ongoing development and support of the Vanilla open source solution.
Higher Logic will no longer be contributing new features, fixes, or updates to the OSS codebase. - The OSS codebase will remain available on GitHub.
We know many of you still rely on and care about this software. While we won’t be actively maintaining it, we will continue to host the repository so the community can reference, fork, and build upon it. - This forum will be closed in the new year.
We want to give everyone time to wrap up discussions, export anything important, and make any transitions you need to make. We’ll share more specific timing and any practical details as we get closer.
We know this news will be disappointing for many of you. It’s disappointing for us too, because we recognize how much passion, time, and care you’ve invested here. Vanilla’s open source roots, and the people who believed in it early on, are a huge part of why it ever became a successful platform.
On behalf of everyone at Higher Logic and the original Vanilla team: Thank you.
Thank you for your pull requests, your bug reports, your plugins and themes, your feedback (the tough love included), and your dedication over the years. It has truly meant a lot.
If you have questions about this transition, please feel free to ask in the comments below. We’ll do our best to answer what we can.
With appreciation,
The Higher Logic Vanilla Team
大家好，
多年来，Vanilla 经历了不平凡的发展历程，而开源社区从一开始就是这段故事的核心。你们当中有许多人贡献了代码、分享了想法、提交了 Bug 报告、编写了插件，也彼此帮助、共同学习。正是你们塑造了今天的 Vanilla，我们对此深表感激。
正如许多人已经注意到的那样，Vanilla 开源版本的活跃支持和维护程度已经逐渐下降，直到几乎不复存在。经过慎重考虑，Higher Logic 决定：Vanilla 的开源版本（OSS）将不再作为我们社区论坛平台长期发展愿景的一部分。
以下是这一决定在未来意味着什么：
-
我们将停止对 Vanilla 开源版本的持续开发和官方支持。
-
Higher Logic 将不再为 OSS 代码库提供新功能、修复或更新。
-
OSS 代码库仍将保留在 GitHub 上。
-
我们知道，仍有许多人在依赖并关心这款软件。虽然我们不会再主动维护，但会继续托管该代码仓库，方便社区进行参考、Fork 以及在此基础上进行开发。
-
本论坛将在新的一年关闭。
-
我们希望给大家留出充足时间，完成讨论收尾、导出重要数据，并进行必要的迁移工作。随着时间临近，我们会分享更具体的时间安排和相关操作细节。
我们理解，这个消息会让许多人感到失望。对我们来说同样如此，因为我们深知你们在这里投入了大量的热情、时间和心血。Vanilla 的开源起源，以及那些在早期就相信它的人，正是它最终能够成为一个成功平台的重要原因。
谨代表 Higher Logic 全体成员以及最初的 Vanilla 团队，向你们表示衷心的感谢。
感谢你们多年来提交的 Pull Request、Bug 报告、插件和主题，也感谢你们的反馈（包括那些“严厉但真诚”的意见），以及始终如一的投入与支持。这对我们意义重大。
如果你对这次过渡有任何疑问，欢迎在下方评论区提出。我们将尽力回答我们能够解答的问题。
致以诚挚的感谢，
Higher Logic Vanilla 团队
