There will never be an Acmlmboard 2.0, because the code will probably be totally rewritten. All of Ace's work will be totally gone and the board will be renamed to like...wootboard or something like that.

Unless i'm mistaken.

well, that wouldn't be an entirely terrible idea at all. it's generally harder to work and adapt an older and more cumbersome system than it is to tear everything down and replace everything with more modernized components.

and in regards to the 1.8a currently 'released' version of the board code... well, it's fairly 'dated' and cumbersome enough :\

It doesn't make a difference, so I guess most people won't mind or even notice.

Yeah, that is something that has been bugging me. When can we expect any version of 1.9 released. I mean there have been like five 1.9's already 1.9, 1.93, 1.9b1, 1.9b2, 1.9b3(1.A0)...

Are we just gonna keep going or what?

Acmlm Forever or something would be pretty cool. Or The Legendary Board of Acmlm.

Or how about: "OMG WTF BBQ ssj23433 Acmlmboard:Reloaded Expension Pack SP3"
Or just "Acmlmboard"
Or "Let Acmlm say what the name should be"%

Rewriting in the meaning of starting from scratch is among the worst things you can do. What does make sense is actual "re-writing", aka refactoring. Customizing old code to fit new terms (IE, if we were to make everything object oriented, we'd make a lot of classes to do general things and then make the code work with them) and then refine the actual code. Correctly done this is a shorter period of grief but the end result is a codebase making more sense.

The original idea was that the b meant build. Although it wasn't a build, because a build is something you do as a programmer every time you've changed something enough to warrant a new very minor version change (i.e. stuff like adding the Sticky option to the Edit Thread page. Not actually viewing it, that'd be two builds.). The problem with the 1.93bX system aside from the actual version (1.93 and its fucked up granularity) was that the builds weren't actual builds (rather releases) and weren't betas, as some people still think to this day (again, they were releases; we beta-tested them on the dev server although sometimes a bit poorly perhaps).

My hope is that we'll keep the releases pretty evenly-matched from now on; all releases should be roughly the same size, and thus we should always increment by 1 (from A0 to A1 and then later from A9 to AA and AF to B0, just to show that it's all hexadecimal). The one possible exception from this will be 1.A1 which will fix polls as we know it. It will also include a feature for polls that I have never seen in any other forum system, and that will be mind-boggingly useful. It will take some work, but man, it will be worth it.
