Source For PHPer

项目介绍：
PunBB是一个绝对快速，轻量级PHP论坛系统，整个程序的压缩包就200多K。与其它出色的论坛如phpBB, Invision Power Board和vBulletin相比，虽然功能较少，但它的主要目的是更快速、更轻巧。对于那些想给用户带来最快速度服务的站长来说，PunBB 绝对是最合适。特别是它独特的样式管理功能非常不错，提供灵活而多样的样式定制界面和简单的CSS样式定制向导。 支持MySQL, PostgreSQL and SQLite等数据库。

The idea of PunBB was first born when I needed a discussion board for a website I was working on. After an exhaustive search, all the boards I found were either over-featured or too graphic for my needs. I wanted a package that

* was fast.
  * had a simple layout and design.
  * was easy to administrate and moderate.
  * didn't output huge, non-valid, (X)HTML pages.
  * had source code you could read and understand.

To my dismay, such a forum was nowhere to be found. Thus, I started working on PunBB, or just Pun as it was called back then.

Developing software to "please the masses" isn't difficult. Just cram in every possible feature you can think of and most people will love it. Some people, however, will hate it and look for alternatives. The problem with developing for that other group of people is having to make decisions on whether to implement a feature or not. What is a "must-have" and what is not?

Some features that I have so far chosen not to implement are: private messaging, file attachments, polls, linking to off-site avatars, advanced text formatting controls, subforums etc etc. The jury is still out on some of these features, but don't expect them to pop up anytime soon. It should however be noted that most, if not all of these features have been realised in the form of third-party mods.
