It's open source. If you don't like something, fix it yourself

Some people are wondering if 3.0 will ever be released and you're making promises about 3.2. Learn much?

Unlike most people, I like to assume that the people directly involved in a project have more knowledge about said project than I do. As such, I'll assume the developers of PHPBB have talked about extending the team and have a schedule for which to do so. This schedule probably includes the words &q...

It may be possible founding a cooperation as you suggested, but this will likely be too much of an effort for small projects. I disagree. Setting up a corporation is as easy as paying a relatively small fee ($100ish US) and signing a piece of paper. After all: A corporation is simply a piece of pap...

The main reason, as stated in the past, is more consistency (2.0.x was a mishmash of OOP and procedural) and simplified mod writing and installation. I haven't read much of the 2.1 (3.0) code yet, but one advantage of OOP is the ability to add or completely change functionality without having to alt...

I think your problem is that this post doesn't belong here. Or on http://www.phpbb.com." target="_blank If you're asking users if they'd like PHPBB reviewed for them, then fine. You can do that. The code is right there for you to review. But you aren't. You're asking the developers if they...

I assume, since you're using a free version of BB software that is currently paid only, that you're not using PHPBB. If you need to do something NOW, then install PHPBB v2.0.13. There are "upgrade" scripts for just about every other BB software out there. You can do that now. There is abso...

What's the point of giving an anticipated (or GOAL) release date? Tell me. You want to know when to expect it. They said late Feb/early Mar and weren't able to release beta. How about they say May...and something else comes up in their lives and they miss May. What was the point in saying May? If yo...

Goals become release dates. Repeat When a developer posts a goal, the community ALWAYS turns it into a release date. They could post some type of progress, but the 30 min it takes to do that is better spent actually working on the project. How much have to donated to the PHPBB project, in terms of d...

I would say, since you don't know the consequences of using alpha software in a live environment, you are not qualified to use alpha software in a live environment

Then again, I'm crazy
