Updated: Release 2.6.18 and 2.6.19
A small bugfix release version 2.6.18 was released last week, immediately followed by a 2.6.19 because of a small build issue.
Updated: forums situation
We're pretty much ready to replace the old forums with the new one, so we will work on that.
Once that happens all accounts will need to do a password reset. You can then request a password reset to your email address on the new forum to regain access to your account.
There will still be a lot of left over crap from the old forums that was imported, but we will sift through that to keep the good and ditch the bad.
