On This Episode: Douglas Bell (Fountain of Apples), David Lewis (Highway of Life), and Jeff Chandler (Jeffro)

Again, apologies for the late release of this one, but I had final exams this past week! There are also no chapter markers in the AAC version this week in order to try to get this out sooner.

We’re fresh back from Thanksgiving Break and heading into the home stretch of 2009 in this hastily-prepared episode of phpBB Weekly. We’re joined on this episode by our friend Jeff Chandler of the WordPress Weekly podcast (they’re still on TalkShoe!). We have a discussion with him about the phpBB.com MODs Database and the MOD validation process, and consider the merits of WordPress adopting such a strategy for its plugin repository.

Then both David and Douglas share some top ten lists this week: Douglas channels David Letterman in 2008′s Top Ten Least Popular Holiday Songs. David offers a more serious note: the top ten things NOT to do as a forum administrator.

The MOD of the Week is mChat New Version by stokerpiller, and the Style of the Week is Christmas Dream – Style 1 by DaVidU.
