Yes, well actually I already know that there is no legal problem; I was asking if you didn't mind, personally Wink Though everyone must rely on licenses, I tend to think that proper (net)etiquette is always A Good Thing. After all, we would be using your own code to get phpBB better, which in some sense is one of your direct competitors.


Well, obviously having FUDforum features being added to phpBB, one of FUDforum direct competitors is not something that I am glad about, I much rather have people switch to FUDforum if they require such functionality. Given the size differences every little bit of publicity FUDforum gets is earned with much hard work and effort so, loosing any little bit of an advantage is unfortunate. But, that said I do realize that your action is a mere formality, which I do appriciate, you didn't have to ask my permission. Utltimately, there is nothing I can or would do to prevent you from introducing similar functionality into phpBB based on FUDforum code as long as there are no licensing issues.

- Why did you use file-based databases for messages (among other things) ?



Performance decision, discussed numerous time on this forum before, if you are curious read search the message archives.

- How stable is mailing list / nntp support?



At this point it is fairly stable and is used to import large mailing list & newsgroups. Although there are a few people who have reported some difficulty getting it to work, but I believe those are mostly setup issues, rather then the actual script operation.
