Development Discussion Board

From the impression that I get from what the developers have said, the development of the phpBB Portal will not begin until after phpBB 2.2 is released.

What's wrong with Pascal? It's a fairly powerful language, but it also prevents you from getting into serious trouble, like you could with C all too easily. The lack of foreach / elseif is one thing currently. I'm sure there will be more :P C and C++ doesn't contain those either. Does that make the...

Very true. My PHP is pretty good, and for my computing course, I HAD to learn Pascal (*shudder*) It's been pretty easy to learn, although the language itself sucks. What's wrong with Pascal?

What happened to the Previous/Next links? Where they taken out for a specific reason? Because without them, I'll get lost. In fact, I had a hard time finding the bathroom this morning because those links where gone.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the skills and knowledge needed for other teams, such as the MOD Team, different from those needed to develop phpBB 2.2? No, you're not wrong, not really. Yeah, I was being a little sarcastic about this idea that there are "extra" team members that coul...
