    Might have to download this and test it when it's released.

    Thanks for the share, things are really getting back on track for them. Which is good as all this time the potential of this great software was ignored because of the countless problems they've had.

    One thing really sucks badly. IF they are choosing for 3.0 (which will be a complete rewrite), all waiting was for nothing. I wonder how long 3.0 will take, as 2.0 took five years (only adding new features etc).

    I'm really glad development is back up, it may turn into the dominating free forum software if they really work on it. It seemed like they were good at innovating at the time.

    I tried SMF on an old forum I had called "The Island"
    It was nice while it lasted but I gave up on that software a long time ago. There is bigger fish to fry out there. :P

    I've never been a great SMF fan at all (I just hate the way it feels as a user). They have some cool features such as the package management, but it was never enough. A complete rewrite (version 3.0) could be cool though if they sort out everything and bring in some fresh new features.

    But if that were to happen that would take them another 5 years. :ROFL:

    Neither can I really. I just hope they release a beta before it so I can work on upgrading my plugins and stuff in time :)

    Man I'm torn between saving for IP.Board or waiting for MyBB 2.0. Probably by the time I have the money there will be a beta out so that will be great :D

    Well MyBB 2.0 will be free so you wont have to be worried about paying for it.

    Well I'm talking about testing 2.0 before I buy IPB, just to make my mind up. If it's really awesome, then I'll probably go with it in the end :)

    I should take it for a spin soon, even though the last time I used SMF was 2.0 RC5.
