I have learned a great deal about v 1.2.2 in the past few months and feel very comfortable with all aspects of the php coding now and have made changes and fixed lots of 1.2.2 problems that I have found out specially in the past week and was able to comfortably change and by pass issues and work around stuff.
php is fun and is good programming language and have learned a great deal about PMBT.
I can now easily modify anything I see and issues that I like to address and small changes that I like to make and very familiar with all various program and directories and configs and etc..
I think, now I might make a move into forum integration of fullmod, since I got a bit of comfort level
Only question that I have is...
Is there any release date schedule for PMBT? next version? featurelist?
So I can make a decision where I stand with my site projects..
Thanks

we haven't got a release schedule, but the next version will be 1.3, and it'll feature mostly bugfixes and minor new features.
i'd like to point 2 things out though:
- we might not be able to develop the fullmod branch any further. right now there's only two people in the development team (and that's already counting me in, i wouldn't call myself a serious coder). forking the project at such a point would be bare madness, as it would virtually double the workload.
as for the forum integration, joe is constantly working to keep up with changes in phpBB3 (which is now in RC5, i believe), and it will probably be released as a mod to the regular pmbt version, eventually.
- we might have to stop shipping 3 themes with the package. for many changes in the layout, and also for new features very often, this adds a lot of (stupid, repetitive, but nonetheless time-consuming) tasks. so we're thinking about switching to "Ubuntu" as the sole theme (it was supposed to be the main theme starting with v. 1.2, but due to a bug in the install script that we overlooked, new installs ended up falling back to the Hypercube theme). Ubuntu is the only theme that's not table-based. i would recommend for everybody to base their themes on Ubuntu.
