			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>The best promotion is word of mouth and excellence. Eventually people do notice.<br />What caught my attention about this forum script is it&#039;s beautiful and elegant design out of the box. It&#039;s surprising to find that&#039;s it&#039;s also very intelligently done under the hood.<br />I arrived here from Wikipedia&#039;s mini-portal on open source software, was reading an article there comparing a list of open source forum scripts. I was curious to find if there was something else, something better than phpBB or vBulletin, and when I visited punbb.org I knew instantly, from the design and style of this website, that I would like this script.<br />I&#039;ve been using phpBB for years, but was always annoyed at it&#039;s horrible default &quot;subSilver&quot; template, childish and full of unnecessary graphics, that I had to modify for hours in order to please my tastes.<br />I think with punBB I&#039;ve found what I was looking for. Now I need to convert the phpBB databases of several different sites of mine to punBB. I&#039;m still dragging my feet though because punBB doesn&#039;t support private messaging and polls, and don&#039;t want to break anything when doing the conversions.<br />Congratulations Rickard for your beautiful creation: punBB. Keep up the work please. I&#039;ll make a donation to the project soon.</p>]]></content>
