Re: PunBB 1.2.8

its going be a long time. I think pun 1.2.8 is stable enought that we dob't have to change for a while, and most likely there is going to a pun1.2.9 in have a years time and then we jump to 1.3.0 with in a year

Re: PunBB 1.2.8

why would you think that? 1.2.9 could be a couple of weeks away or could never happen, 1.2.5,6,7,8 were not planned they were security fixes, there is no way to predict the next release date really

Re: PunBB 1.2.8

I love the hdiffs ... a couple of minutes of copy + paste and then copy those modified files to all my forums ... hmm... next time I might test the 'automatic' upgrading from the diff files big_smile

The PunRes installer will also be able to run upgrades smile

Re: PunBB 1.2.8

Hey all!

A question about upgrading:   In theory couldn't I upload the 14 files mentioned here: http://punbb.org/download/hdiff/hdiff-1 … 1.2.8.html

and then run the upload script?

I just figure there has to be a better way of upgrading my 1.26 install than overwriting all the files.

Re: PunBB 1.2.8

Yes, that's the idea behind the "Changed files only" package on the download screen

Re: PunBB 1.2.8

huh? guess what? Rickard will no doubt not make a release until either 1.3 is ready or a security flaw is found in 1.2.8 which as i said before is unpredicatable, obviously it gets less likely with each build but is never impossible.

Re: PunBB 1.2.8

As of right now, I am not aware of any security related issues with 1.2.8. I know of a few very minor bugs (or rather annoyances), but that's it.

Because it is unpredictable wink
I might find a security bug tomorrow, or I might not find one for a month, or I might not find another one (I'm leaning toward the last one, since I haven't really been able to find much of anything else). Same with everyone else
