We return from a Halloween break to see a bunch of brand new releases awaiting our special phpBB Weekly coverage. David and Michael (mtotheikle) have released a Mac Dashboard widget for Solona, so if you use a Mac it’s now even easier to help others solve CAPTCHAs. phpBB.com has been retrofitted with some nifty new submenus in the site navigation. Also out are UMIL 1.0.1, phpBB 3.0.6 RC-4, Support Toolkit RC-3, and a new Online MODX Creator tool. But no final release of phpBB 3.0.6, but all good things come to those who are patient…

Our last (and final) phpBB Weekly Poll Question was “If you were to add a step to the MOD validation workflow, what would it be?” Here are the results:
To remove a step. (0% / 0 votes)
To trademark every single term used in the validation process. (33% / 2 votes)
Free meal vouchers for every day a MOD has to wait in the queue. (17% / 1 vote)
Building a memorial gravesite for every MOD that gets denied. (17% / 1 vote)
A betting ring where the validators place bets on which MODs will and won’t get approved. (33% / 2 votes)
To take a vacation. (0% / 0 votes)
Total votes: 6
