The golden moment has arrived!
Today we begin a new chapter in the history of phpBB. After five years, over 200,000 lines of new and altered code, and many a long night phpBB Group is very proud to announce the release of phpBB3 “Olympus”.
phpBB has changed considerably since work on its second major release began. People have come and gone but this day would not have been reached without the hard work and dedication of all our group members, past and present. The phpBB community, all of you, also deserve a large pat on the back for continuing to support this project. Whether it be through writing mods, creating new themes, spreading the word or simply using phpBB to build new communities, our thanks to you too.

Happy birthday baby phpBB3!

So what happen to RC6? RC6 was superseded by RC7 in a surprisingly short span of two days.
We are very pleased to announce the availability of the phpBB3 RC7 package, the “We are sorry and love our support team” edition. This release fixes some critical issues which arised with the recently released Release Candidate 6, basically fixing some bbcode problems as well as missing form tokens…
This release is mostly the outcome of an external security audit performed by SektionEins. All items tagged as [Sec] were found by the company doing the audit and revealed some fundamental problems we were able to fix. We are proud that the audit revealed no sql injection vulnerability or critical command execution vulnerabilities.

This is the fifth (and hopefully last) release candidate which is meant to become the Gold release if no more critical problems arise.

RC4 has seen quite a lot of improvements, the software should be overall much more stable.
