Development FAQ [Edit]
When is phpBB 3.0 going to be released? [Edit]
We believe that our products should not be set with a release date. This means that the developers are not rushed to finish the product by a set date, or dissapoint our users by pushing said date back. Thusly, there is absolutely no release date for phpBB 3.0.0. It will be released when the product is finished. This way, you are bound to get a higher quality product.
