they are moving from vB3 to either phpBB3 or MyBB.

I'd say it's definitely worth people recommending XF for them as they may not be fully aware of it.
I wonder, does anyone (Ashley?) do any active PR/Sales to large forum-based sites? Or is XF marketed just by word of mouth at this stage?
Changing was inevitable. vB is closed and requires a license for the update that would allow tapatalk. Generally speaking, spending a large amount of money on an updated license, when OSS is available that will perform the same task, seems like not a genius move to the non-profit foundation.
They're after *free* software. Any of those options (including vB) are technically open source.
They just don't want to pay for a commercial product.
It seems they are really after OSS....
Got me worried there, i used XBMC every day and thought the site was being shutdown when i saw the topic title.
Uhhh ... I see you aren't xbmc's Accountant !People forget they don't make much money... it's all based off donations.
So they probably don't want to spend lots of money on XF or vB or IPB.
I think mybb is the way to go for them at this point.
I like it, but its a bit harsh lolCan't stop stupidity is all I'll say...
