Forum software update

[John Kennett]

I've just updated the forum software to the latest version. This is mainly to close a few security loopholes, but there are some other minor changes too. I've had a quick check and all seems to be OK, but I will be doing some more work on it later.

If you find any problems please let me know.

Sorry. It was just a matter of grabbing the chance while I had some free time.

You should have seen a message saying that the forums were shut for maintenance - did you get something different?

I saw that, then it disappeared and I got a line of code instead.

Hmm. Looking at the logs it appears that it was like this for about 45 minutes during the upgrade.

Total down time was less than an hour, but apologies again to anyone who was inconvenienced!
