Following vs. Friending

Does anyone know when this plugin will be released?

I much prefer the follow concept to the friend concept the way it’s implemented here at BP.

Please let me know where and when I can get it, I’d like to implement it before I launch my community.

Thank you.

Soon™. I think it was delayed because of WCSF and related event.

Would it make sense to use both, friendship AND following?

What are the diffrences between the two?
Also, if you implement teh following on a running BP site, aren’t the members going to be troubled by that? Friends won’t convert automatically into followers, do they?

gian-ava – You’re correct. Current friends do not get converted over to following / follower users. Might want to ping Andy about this.

tahah – It’ll be released in the next week or so when BP 1.2.4 drops.
