How is this an allegation? MyBB encourages users to customize their forums by adding 3rd party themes or editing their templates by themselves. You can't expect the average user (with no to limited PHP skills) to write secure PHP templates or being able to identify malicious code. You are suggesting something that is less secure than the templates we have just because it is a tiny bit faster.

So if changing the license to BSD wasn't a problem back then why suddenly changing the license would be a problem right now?
MyBB 2.0 was supposed to be written from scratch. It doesn't use any LGPL licensed code from MyBB 1.8.

Ah, that explains it. Makes sense. Thanks.

Hard to argue against the "point of no return" situation.

I've switched to WordPress. Mybb is great. But I am starting to feel like there is going to be some very angry clients and customers if mybb 1.9 takes place. I understand code and security is constantly changing by evolving. So there is nothing we can really do except deal with it. I wish mybb the best of luck with there endeavors.
Dear MyBB Developers,
When will MyBBy 1.9 (Mobile Responsive Friendly Version) be released? I am tired of waiting so please tell me the release date of MyBB 1.9, have some fear of God and release MyBB now.
I am using MyBB since 2008 on all kinds of my websites, before MyBB was ranking very well on Google Search Engine but nowadays Google isn't paying attention to MyBB powered websites because of MyBB websites are not mobile friendly.
Does MyBB project died or still alive? you people must tell the truth to us.
I apologize if any of my words offended you.
Best Regards,

Hi, wamp. Progress towards a MyBB 1.9 release is ongoing. My own work on MyBB 1.9 (as a staff developer) can be tracked here:
https://github.com/lairdshaw/mybb/commit...eme-system
Whether or not my work is ultimately adopted, potentially with amendments, remains to be seen, but it's at least something.
I wouldn't dare to hazard a guess at a release date though.

it's about 8 years (2878 days) since MyBB has released 1.8, after that no major version yet

I understand the disappointment. I don't, though, know what more I can say than I already just did, other than that if anybody wants to help out with the ongoing development, I can suggest ways in which they can contribute.

What do you mean by clients and customers? I didn't realise MyBB was paid software or the MyBB Group services clients?
