This had been on my to do list, since I've been aware of those vulnerabilities. However, time has been short.
Though, I'm delighted to be able to report that the upgrade was succesfully completed today. See http://www.maiden-world.com/forum/topic2322.html for the announcement.
Oh and...
Maiden World was just upgraded (manually, and with a lot of effort) to phpBB 2.0.11.
I would like to ask all forum members to take this opportunity to test all of the features of the board and check that everything is working as it should.
Any errors, urgent or otherwise should be...
Well, looks like Maiden World has survived well so far this year, no major data losses that I can recall.. We crossed the 100k post and 2k user marks, and everything seems to be continuing fine. Not to mention the excellent Maiden World Live which has grown well since its inception 3 months ago...

This place can sometimes take quite a bit of work to keep current...
Ok, Maiden-World will be changing over to the previously mentioned new european server when I'm home this weekend.
I hope to be able to do the changeover on Friday night or during Saturday, so I have the most time possible at home with all the resources available to me to fix problems. I...
Maiden World will be moving servers before 1st January 2005 as part of a package of changes from our web host.
I hope to be able to provide further information when the move is confirmed and more details are known. The new server is in Europe, so those of you connecting from the UK might...

I guess the node could be

or something like that, just a suggestion. That way you...
Yes, dont think its accepting signups from non traders/tapers at the moment though.
