Re: Most evil technology on the web? (28 replies, posted in General discussion)
Well, there is no such thing as web 2.0. It's the exact same web, just more people have learned to code for it (in the broadest meaning of the word) and use it.

I installed 626 from svn, and after 15 seconds I already noticed a couple of severe or critical bugs
What bugs do you mean? I use this version on one of intranet web-sites:-)
One of the rewrite rule get my Apache's host to http 500, there's charset mixup at the install, among others one. But I'll wait for Trac (and the TXD crew to wake up) to do more serious testing&report.

For some project, I don't dislike mailing-list. The first condition being on the list from the start, hat way I'm sure I have everything, and could search without problems.
Joining a year-long ML in the middle is a pain in the bottom part, very much yes.

There's good and bad on either side of the hosting equation, we just want to get 1.3 out the door.
Out of the alpha or beta door by the way, right?

Re: punbb dev site (27 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 discussion)
That may be fine for people with the right skills, and time. I don't now in the US, but these past years in France we have seen several large discount offer of entry-level dedicated server (at 20-30? a month, mostly unmetered 100Mb bandwith) that even small (but not tiny) project could afford, and are quite adequate for common web hosting (common, in the mouth of an über geek).
However, it still require skills and time. For example, Rickard being able to write SQL and PHP doesn't mean he can write and keep up to date a iptable conf, or has the time to patch half a dozen software each week.
The advantage I see myself in good (yet cheap) shared server, beside the lack of skills and time required, is the strength of it. No dedicated server (at affordable level) could compete with the kind of endurance I got from my shared server. 1Gbp front ddos attack? No problem, I don't even feel it. Two motherboards just fried? The same. That's the power of cluster

Re: punbb dev site (27 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 discussion)
Joyent buyout, "business" and dedicated account, those were big red lights. But they were other signs before that. Constant outages, and having the need to corner an admin on the forums and slowly, bit by bit, make him acknowledge something was wrong, was also too much. And others things. Well, it's not the place to rant.
I don't have a replacement at hand for hosting coding project by the new tech, my needs are mostly cheap, very fast and reliable web service hosting, and that I got no problem. But no svn, no webdav, no custom apache conf, no ruby. So maybe not for the custom edge developers

But a damn good thread. I just got the same issue (I couldn't disconnect from my board, so I erase the PunBB cookie to go bug hunt, and I found the "hO_ thing). Without it I would never thought of the httponly addon.
The addon is gone, all is fine.

Re: 1.3 500 Internal Server Error (22 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 discussion)
Rickard, do you need beta (or alpha) testing of 1.3? I was under the impression 1.3 was not ready for it, but if you need some testing, I ? and I'm sure a lot others ? can help with that.

Well, not to rant, but I moved all my important (ie not gadgets) websites out of Textdrive several month ago (and I'm a VC holder). Too slow, too many outages, and crucial for me previous functionnalities being stopped.

Re: Questions (4 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 discussion)
I've been looking for a forum software and stumbled upon this. The pros seem to be simplicity and minimalizm. The cons are simplicity and minimalizm.
Indeed. Oh, and one major pro that almost no other forums have : strict HTML (xhtml in this case), valid and semantic. No HTML soup ugliness.
1. punbb doesn't seem to reset the "read" status of a thread when it has been viewed (the blue square stays blue). Is there a way to fix this?
There's a mod doing it. And 1.3 version should have this in core.
2. what is the planned feature set of 1.3 as opposed to 1.2? what are the differences at present (besides visual appearance)?
Planned as far as I remember : native utf8 support, readable URL (rewritten), topics read marked as read, real advanced plugin system...
3. I'm looking for a forum board which has the following features built-in: private messaging, downloads, a facility to implement bug reporting (a la bugzilla). Note: *not* mods/extensions, I need built-in features!
First, these are not forums feature, at all. And I don't know any who has it all.

I had the same problem for some time (althought not often). And I don't have all those mods.
I'll check the changeset, and I will be baaaack
Edit : Ok, it seems it was the same for me, that changeset diff was never applied for a unknown reason. I'll wait to see if anyone report another temporary missing posts, but it seems ok now.

Re: Punbb search performance tweak (30 replies, posted in PunBB 1.2 discussion)
I'm guessing a homemade search tool, using PHP (aka interpreted language) will always be slower than using a true SQL search. It would be quite useful if 1.3 would allow real SQL search (using MySQL fulltext for example), or at least be able to use it if one add a plugin/extension/whatever for it without hacking the main sources.
