One of the primary reasons I gave up on Joomla - constant updating, constant patching, security issues etc. But then, what software (commercially released) the size of Joomla / vBulletin have security issues? I'd be interested to find one that doesn't. Even WordPress has many security holes which you've gotta plug up.

I haven't tried vBulletin 3 yet, but from what you're saying it's a lot better. I might give it a crack.

I'm sure if the software can handle everything here it's bound to handle pretty much anything else. This is much better because you can code what you want and not what others think you should have (e.g. developers). That's what annoys me about software such as Windows - you're given stuff like Terminal Server, remote procedure call etc - who uses, as a home user, that sort of stuff?

Yep, that's the downsize of such great software releases. Ah well, we'll see what the future brings

lol! That would be cool although I do think you should include people like Alex (Rattle&Hum1988) and Jeff (anstratdubh1979) in that equation too. Everyone has something tucked away that's gonna be worth mentioning

However it's gonna work, and although I'm not entirely sure what the complete idea is, I'd be up for writing a U2-related blog when or wherever
