Hey,
I just want to inform everybody that I'm working on a brand new bulletin board software. The best feature I have come up with so far is that it will be in about six or more cgi languages (eventually!!): PERL, PHP, Python, C, Java, and ASP. Yes, I know there are other BBS's out there already written in the above languages. BUT, they are all written in one language! My goal is to have ONE BBS written in MANY languages. Also, some BBS's do not use an SQL database but a flat-file database(YaBB). Well, if you see a point/counter-point to this feel free to post it.

Feature List:

• MySQL 4.x
• MySQL 5.x
• MSQL
• Oracle
• PostgreSQL
• Perl 5.8.8
• PHP 5
• avatars
• signatures
• BBCode
• Smilies
• Points System
• Bank
• Shop
• MODs
• use SMTP
• Private Messages
• Invisible Browsing
• changeable permissions
• update function
• backup
• .gz compression
• Moderators
• Admin Control Panel
• Ranks
• auto-login
• cookies
• SSL login
• Styles/Templates
• HTML
• search
• create mailing lists
• user/moderator forums
• user uploaded avatars
• FAQ(s)

If you think there should be more, just post it. Also, if you want to send me a code snippet, just PM it to me with and I'll add your username to my Acknowledgements section at the top of the Readme. I hope this will be out in a stable release by the end of the year.
