phpBB2 official support discontinued this morning

Postby Juanm on Thursday January 1st, 2009 20h18:13

19h18' ... this is the timeframe passed from the official closing of phpBB2 support and 2.0.x support forum locking on phpBB.com

Marshalrusty, here wrote:Most phpBB2 resources have been removed from the Support Section of the site and further pruning will take place within the next few weeks. phpBB2 Knowledge Base articles will be reposted in the archived forum.


And then ....

There are a number of third party sites which have opened for the purpose of offering assistance with phpBB2. Additionally, some international support sites have decided to continue supporting phpBB2. As stated on the international support site page, phpBB.com does not manage these sites and therefore does not set their policies. You should, of course, be careful when following directions found on other sites.

We strongly recommend that users who are still running phpBB2 convert to phpBB3. After reading the conversion documentation, further assistance may be sought in the 3.0 Support Forum.


Please remember that 2.0.x security patches will be released only for about 30 days and 4 hours starting from now.
Then security issues on 2.0.x == invitation to convert to the new spanking 3.0.x line

As an additional note, I don't plan to remove 2.0.x stuff from this site until it becomes a huge security risk.

And well .... it's unlikely that patch files and MODs can become risky, at least before Feb 1st 2009 ;)
