Default phpBB3 RC2 Released

Finally, RC2 of phpBB3 is here! I am hoping the next version will be gold. Can't wait. What are your views on phpBB2 and phpBB3?

My views are...

There are many forum softwares out there such as vBulletin, IPB, phpBB, SMF, YaBB and MyBB and all of those are my favourite forum software, but my favourite paid forum software would be vBulletin and favourite free (open source) forum software would be phpBB2 and phpBB3. I quickly tried a BETA and Release Candidate version sometime ago and I am shocked to see such new features of phpBB. It had so many more user and admin capabilities and it had a new style which I loved. Will you be using phpBB3 when it becomes gold?

I like phpBB2 but like vBulletin that bit more because of all the features and the general "feel" of it.

I am however going to give phpBB3 a chance and let it impress me - it might even overtake vBulletin in my list of favourite forum software if it is that good!! Is their a working demo of phpBB3?

Yeah, there is a working demo of phpBB, which is used at area51 of phpBB: http://area51.phpbb.com/phpBB/. phpBB3 RC2 is available for download, I'd recommend using it for testing purposes, because I guarantee you'll like all the new features implemented into phpBB3 .

Unfortunately that website hosting seems to be down at the moment so I can't see the benefits of the new phpBB!! Is there another one?
