Hi,
After installing 1.4.4 I get following alert :
PunBB updates: A newer version of PunBB, version 1.4.4, is available for download at punbb.informer.com.
Even the version mentioned inside is 1.4.3. I guess its due to define('FORUM_VERSION', '1.4.3'); in constants.php
If this is the case then I would request PunBB Team to change the version in package and release it.
