Will there be an SDK included with Beta-1?

Or won't it come until Gold release? And when is USUALLY language files frozen? How has it been in previous versions?

hmm, what do you expect such an "SDK" to be?

Ah, that's what you're talking about I was thinking of a Software Development Kit in general ;-) Well no idea about the graphics. Since there is nothing about the final style you can be really sure of I guess no one will be able to give you an answer yet.

All I can say at the minute is that that one didn't appear until quite late on for 2.0.x, so don't hold your breath expecting one to be available with 2.2 Beta-1.

As for the language files, they are not frozen at this time. The developers are likely to say something when they do reach a point where translations become viable.

I think Virtuality talked about a GDK (Graphics Development Kit) as psoTFX called it but I don't know what the ipbsdk is. If it is a SDK (Software Development Kit), I wonder what exactly it does and which functions these basic functions are? I would certainly be interested if they are really useful for MOD Developers.

in IPB there is a SDK (Developed by some others, not official) which contains a set of board functions that can **Control** the board outside the board.....

for example, u can use the SDK to create a login webpage and then it will login to teh forum as well, etc, is very useful if u want to create a site that can intregate with ur forum.... so, I am also hoping that someone will do the same for phpbb....

How to do that is documented in the phpBB Knowledge Base and has been for years - I imagine it will continue to be so when 2.2 is released.
