The big news today is bbPress 0.72 “Bix” has been released, the first officially released version of the blazingly fast forum software 2 years in the making. It includes some of the things WordPress has become well-known for, like spam protection, easy extensibility, and WP-like customization. ¶

I’ll be using bbPress on a upcoming project…. sweet job. I checked it out early on and it looked good. I’ve been keeping an eye on it ever since.

So Matt, what’s with you and 0.72 being the first major production version? WP really hit its stride with 0.72 as well. There’s a story here … right?

It’s just a little Easter egg for folks who remember the early days of WordPress. bbPress has a lot of parallels, except with the knowledge of past mistakes.

Heheheheh, sorry to bring that into the open so fast then.

Now that’s explains why “Bix” sounds very familiar.
