svn update merges in changes, it doesn't overwrite them. The worst case is you have a conflict, which would result in a parse error.
The easiest fix would be to define PUN_TURN_OFF_MAINT in include/essentials.php

Fixed

True, but no plan is perfect and all are subject to Murphy's Law
But really, this is semantics. There will always be people who are capable enough to run the software without major issues. However, since the majority of people aren't capable and the development team wants to spend time developing rather than debugging odd installs, it's better simply to ask that people not use beta software in a production environment.

Matt: I can't. That doesn't mean people shouldn't test converting an existing site to the new version. That doesn't mean people shouldn't let users run wild on a test version of the site. It just means that people shouldn't be using the beta software as their site. If someone wants to convert their forum and let their users test it out to get feedback, that's great. If someone coverts their forum, deletes their backups, and then faces some database corruption caused by a bug, then we have an issue.

Which is true, there aren't too many incoming bug reports. However, you're right that activity has been a little slow.

And that's where my confusion lies. There is no page with just the first form on it. The first form is on top of the ban list.

Then what is the point? I'm not really understanding

Hey, I did it
http://www.punbb-hosting.com/ext/ext_db_auth.zip
Consider this an entirely unofficial, proof of concept type rough draft. I didn't really think this extension through very much and it certainly isn't up to the level of what I want for it as an official extension (eg: for an official extension, I would rather have an extension that takes objects of a certain type (AuthObjects?) and calls their methods, which would allow for both HTTP and database based auth via a similar system: it just needs more planning). This is just a quick, simple "get the job done" type of extension.
I also just tested it and it appears to work fine. Let me know if you find any issues.

Aha, I see
The issue is actually http://www.fantasticode.com/forums versus http://www.fantasticode.com/forums/
Without the trailing slash in the address, Apache uses the virtual server's name, which does not have the www in it. The trick is to redirect everything to the www address: that way, the two redirects cancel each other out. The alternative is to modify Apache's VirtualServer settings for that site.

bingiman: Are you distributing the style? If so, the CSS IS released under the GPL. It's a derivative work and thus if you're distributing it you must do so under the GPL. Images, for obvious reasons, may have their own copyright issues that need to be dealt with. If you don't want your style distributed under those terms, then you don't distribute it.
Of course, a copyright notice still has to be included with the style as credit.

Not necessarily.
