New new start?

Post by Jackal05 »

I was just wondering how did work on 2.2 start?
Did you guys just start working on the older version of phpBB to make it better or did you guys start from scratch?
Just wondering. The reason this is a question I'm asking is because some features are not here from the older version and that wants me to ask this question.

We started from the 2.0.x code ... it's changed a fair bit in many places but there are still parts which will look familiar. Certain things are "missing" because the internal changes to allow them to function have not been carried out. For example private messaging, saw no point in changing now something that is not scheduled for "completion" till M-4.

PM will change quite significantly internally ... unless we get lazy :) That's why I see no point in spending time on it now.

It's called your Outbox and Sentbox and exists in phpBB 2.0.x.

So no 'more visible' tracking system like in Invision Board (for example) then. :(
