This person did I think:

If it is okay to remove the copyright, I would like to do that because I do not like outbound links. Is it easy to remove?

Do you mean the actual hyperlink to PunBB? Regardless, the "ok" part is up to Rickard.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's illegal to remove the copyright...

Rickard, it looks like some people owe you some money. :-)

Re: OK to remove the copyright entirely from punBB?

No, as Rickard said in the topic I linked to, you're allowed to remove the copyright from the HTML (although everyone I can think of here would suggest that someone not do that): you are not allowed to remove the copyright from the PHP however

Anyone who removes the copyright sucks. <--- My Oppinion.

Christ. The guy did a LOT of great work. He's distributing it for free. Now they want to strip the man of his props? That's ho. :-)
