SMF 2.0 Release Candidate 2 is out for Charter Members!

[TomW]

New feature: "Load Balancing". What that actually do?

Linux/Unix servers track their own load. Using that you can force features to turn off under high server load to keep everything else up. E.g. turning off unread replies and search to keep everything else running.

Wow, that is a GREAT feature !  Thanks to all of the developers for this feature, and the other new features for SMF 2.0 RC2

Yeah, this must mean wysiwyg is working and curve has drop-down menus.

i hope javascript adcodes are fully supported like VB in this new release of smf

Aaron didn't mention this in his announcement. Where do you see it, in the package itself?

The new Curve theme looks great. Can't wait to install this when it is released for normal users

[TwitchisMental]

This is probably a silly question and commonly ask,but will themes made for rc1-2 work on rc2?

Oh and same with the mods?

Anyways I can't wait to try rc2 out .

I am glad smf has such a nice release cycle .

This is probably a silly question and commonly ask,but will themes made for rc1-2 work on rc2?

Possibly. It depends on how much they interlocked with Core. They could certainly be made to work with Curve. You can see the compatibility stylesheet Core has for some ideas on the changes needed.

Oh and same with the mods?

Possibly. If it edits the themes, it will need to be updated. Most anything modifying a common control or not touching the theme should work.

I suppose as far as the Version Check is concerned, SMF 2.0 RC1.2 will remain the official latest release until RC2 is publicly available?

Correct.

Suppose I sign up for Charter Membership .. would I get an SMF RC2 download as well?  Still supporting SMF as well.

Yes, but there is a seven day delay before you can access special charter downloads, as noted on the sign-up page. This was done to cut down on fraud.

I Signed up for Charter

Anyway, I'm excited for Curve though.

[Antechinus]

And Curve is excited for you. It's been drooling with glazed eyes for days.

[Yigal]

o.o LOL .. It better be compataible with my mods .. lol

[NHWD]

Does anyone have a rough estimate of how long will it be until the official 2.0 version will be out?

[Oldiesmann]

i hope javascript adcodes are fully supported like VB in this new release of smf 

As I recall, our code wasn't the problem...

[DirtRider]

Now to wait for all the themes and mods to catch up 

[Antechinus]

Done my two mods already. Themes are next.

[gisfreak]

whihiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii, cant wait till release to regular member 

what time SMF 2.0 Final will be released ?

regards , GISfreak

[Antechinus]

We're aiming between a week and two weeks if nobody finds any nasty bugs. You can't always predict this sort of thing.

ETA: I mean for RC2 public release, not Final. Final is still a way off.

WOOOHOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!
