Well that solves alot of confusion in my mind. However a few question rush directly to my mind now that you say 'no backwards compatibility'. A question for the Devs, does this mean that in order to upgrade I will loose all of my user databases, and loose all of the old posts on my forum???
The only things I want to keep from my forum is the User DB and the Post DB's. The rest can go. I think it's great that you guys moved up to version 3. I know it makes it easier for my to understand, never did get the whole 2.x 2.1.x whatever thingy.
Anyway, I like the new code name, keep up the good work guys, can't wait for the release!!

There will be a converter to convert your 2.0.x board to Olympus so you won't loose anything.

Why was it named after a camera?
Don't give me my freedom out of pity!

Or the one in Greece? The name is used for more than 2000 years. Maybe something more original?subBlue wrote:Nope, the Martian mountain 'Olympus Mons'APTX wrote: Why was it named after a camera?

Re: Just To Clarify About Olympus
It's a smart move, and I applaud it. One day, people will think the mountains and the camera were named after phpBB.

Re: Just To Clarify About Olympus
erm no, as Tom said, the largest mountain in the Solar System. The 3.x series will all be titled after Martian mountains.APTX wrote: Or the one in Greece?
Well, wibblewackle, erphrumple, digglebotty and tampydoodah just didn't sound right so we decided to use a more "standard" nomenclature. I should add I can't think of any projects which use as their codename scheme the mountains of Mars ... I guess you're better versed in projects than I.The name is used for more than 2000 years. Maybe something more original?
