Printer friendly version: Status of IceBB

Posted by Daniel, January 7, 2009 @ 4:32 PM Right, so I just checked back here, and it seems like there is some doubt about the status of IceBB. As far as I am concerned, this project is entirely dead and is no longer being actively developed. Unless somebody steps in and says otherwise, I would say it is safe to assume this.

The code is riddled with bugs, and it suffers from poor design choices. Moreover, considering that there is no real development, bugs and security holes (critical or not) will be left unpatched. This forum software is too small for other vendors to bother with creating a converter, so my personal recommendation is to not use IceBB.

Posted by MutantMonkey, January 12, 2009 @ 12:49 AM Daniel's correct, I'm not currently working on IceBB and do not have any plans to do so in the near future. I apologize for the lack of updates.

I'd personally recommend http://punbb.org/; if I do decide to resume work on IceBB, it will be the first forum I will create a converter for.
