Forum upgrade on Wednesday 25th of Feb

[Dave]

Hi everyone,

I will be upgrading the forum on the 25th of Feb (Wednesday night) at around 9pm WST

The forum will be off-line for approx 30-45 minutes.

Hopefully this might even assist with preventing those annoying spammers

Cheers,
Dave

forum upgrade consisted of getting to the latest version of phpBB, which is the actual software that powers the forum.
I have been working on a new design which runs under the latest version which I'll be trialling in the coming weeks.
