You should really check it out, looks like the devs have skipped some steps from phpbb2 to phpbb3 to make something that is better than SMF at its current stage. From the small testing I did on it anyway, looks cool.

I have been testing it I think fireboard may not pan so I started looking at phpbb 3. I used to us it a lot, years ago and the new version is greatly improved.
They won some sort of an award on sourcefoge
SMF may, still workout, fireboard possibly, but my money as it stands is on phpbb

Thats awesome news
It is indeed, Now all it takes is patience grasshopper. This is something that we all need when it comes to open source software. I must admit I am as guilty as most for not having enough.
When you hear things like this it makes you want want want. But that leads to something else you learn to have when using open source as your site software. That is trust.
Now I am not talking about blind faith. You have to learn who to trust and how those people behave and act. You also have to learn who not to trust and have faith in. I was around since Mambo, through all the splits and GPL debate to me if you read all the posts and watch all the behavior it is not that hard to figure out where to put your trust.
