That's set in your language pack, lang/language_name/common.php. I wouldn't change it if I were you, since you're likely to create an awkward charset situation in your database that will be difficult to deal with when full UTF-8 support comes in 1.3.

exec: Specifying why is important as well, sometimes it's hard to see why a hook is necessary in a certain place
However, I believe Gizzmo is right: there's no reason I can see to have a hook there.

Except it's beta and not meant to be used in a production site.

Your sarcasm detector seems broken

When you upgraded, you overwrote some changes that the phpgedview people made. You need to put that code back.

There isn't really a system for requesting modifications. You could ask over at PunRes and see if anyone is interested in doing it.

So put a call to session_write_close in the destructor and you're good to go?

As a modification? Certainly.

1.3 has a different code base, and the problem there was because of that.
Are other types of emails able to be sent (eg: emailing users via the form) or do none work?

The only attack that is similar to that was a null byte vulnerability (an attacker with admin privileges could change the avatar path to a filename ending in .php%00 and upload an image with PHP embedded in it that could then be executed), but forging the mime type has no effect.

Fill in the correct username/password for the MySQL server then!

I removed the link to your site, since it reeked of self promotion (it still does, since this post has little relevance to PunBB, but I'm going to be nice and leave it).

1. PunBB has no template system in the way you're thinking of it
2. There are SEF friendly URL schemes, but some of the rest of your gripes are silly.
3. Extension system
4. RSS has been a part of PunBB since 1.2.
5. Still small
6. The copyright notice has been removed, but the Powered by link will remain. If you don't understand why the link back is considered polite, then you won't really understand.
7. Existed since 1.2
8. Not a problem, no HTML ever
9-10 don't make much sense.

Moved to 1.3 talk
