On This Episode: Douglas Bell (Fountain of Apples)
Seven months ago, on phpBB Weekly #018, right after the release of RC-1, Douglas discussed the question of which you should install: phpBB2 or phpBB3? But now, seven months have passed, and many things have changed. phpBB3 is now final and stable, PHP 4 is slowly being executed, and we’ve interviewed numerous team members that are forecasting an upcoming end of phpBB2.
In this episode, Douglas re-examines the question of whether a new bulletin board admin should choose phpBB2 or phpBB3, and whether or not it is worth it for existing phpBB2 board to upgrade or not. Plus, we get some commentary from randulo (via the TalkShoe chat room), who recently upgraded his phpBB2 board to phpBB3.
