Hi everyone,

phpBB Group announces the release of phpBB 2.0.20, the «Golden Super
Furry Linen» edition. This release is a cumulative bug fix update, as
well as including a number of minor security fixes. We have also
introduced a new feature to allow you to limit how often a user may
conduct a search if you find that searches are putting a load on your
server, as well as changing the default permissions on new forums so
that you must explicitly make them available for guests to post in
and enabling visual confirmation by default on all new installs.

As with all new releases we urge you to update as soon as possible.
You can of course find this download available on our downloads page
As per usual four packages are available to simplify your update.

Full Package
Contains entire phpBB2 source and English language package

Changed Files Only
Contains only those files changed from previous versions of phpBB.
Please note this archive contains changed files for each previous
release

Patch Files
Contains patch compatible patches from the previous versions of
phpBB.

Code Changes
Contains step-by-step instructions in MOD format for updating
heavily MODified installs

Select whichever package is most suitable for you.

Please ensure you read the INSTALL and README documents in docs/
before proceeding with installation or updates!.

It is important that you carry out both parts of the update –
updating the files and running the database update script – for
updates to be complete.
