However, this is more difficult than it sounds, because phpBB keeps updating their database structure between releases, and it's a pain, at least in our current package but also in general, to change the db layout on every minor version increment. We've discussed this and the plan is now as follows: - We'll update phpBB 2.0.x to the latest version, but will leave out anything that requires database modification unless it's absolutely necessary; - We'll package phpBB 3.x (currently in beta) with a better infrastructure for managing the database backend, where possible.
