Upgraded to 2.0.20

The forum has been upgraded to 2.0.20.

One consequence is that posting html is now disabled due to a defect in the new code.

If you find any other issues, post it here. Thanks.

Great! An upgrade which reduces the number of working features. Kind of Orwellian, eh? Is there any compensation for the loss of the HTML in postings, which in reality simply means the loss of the strikeout tag? I mean other than better uptime, more secure application and better efficiency.

These by themselves sound pretty good. 8-)

Practically all the upgrades are just bug fixes and plugging up security holes. The next major release of phpbb is supposed to be better, but I doubt I'll be installing it. This forum has most of the features that I'm looking for. And I can't imagine having to migrate it to another forum, especially since it's been so heavily customized.
