    I am sure many of the users here expected this release, and I am going to install it in a few minutes, I want to test it, I am sure this is going to be a huge hit!

    phpBB is one of the most widely used forum platforms and is available for free at phpBB.com; for those of you that aren't aware of this forum platform.

    There's being a few excellent modifications under construction at the moment, I am excited and see how far this release will go! Definitely worth upgrading from phpBB2. :cool:

    What's your view? Will you give it a shot, I am a vB user but I think this version has lots of powerful features; and I like the overall look, major improvements if you compare it to phpBB2.

    I agree phpBB may be slow with updates and so on, however it still is one of the most widely used forum platforms, and deserves respect. I just installed the forums, and have to admit I find the adminCP and userCP very easy to use, simple yet lots of integrated features. Well worth a try IMO!

    Still lacks a few key features however full marks for the default theme which raises the bar far beyond any other forum software currently available.

    There seems to be a lot of these topics about. :p

    Anyways, I haven't been keeping up to date as much as I used to, so I am just wondering. Is this now the last release of phpBB 3, or is there still more?

    I am going to use it finally, but am quite wary, phpbb2 has enough of serious vulnerabilities, wonder if php3 will suffer the same?

    Thanks for the answer, I thought it was the final release. Time to count down for phpBB 4. :p
