Is there any chance of this forum being upgraded to the new version of phpBB now that it is available?

Yes, but it takes a little longer than 24 hours after a release.

The new software leaves the older version in the dust.

Did they fix the "it's slow as shit" bug?

One of the reasons we are taking our time with any upgrades.

We've had a few cases of it crashing our server with SQL 1040 errors since we put it on.

So...any word on when or if we are going to upgrade?

Eventually, most likely.When the bugs are worked out to a stable level.
Just like most computer gurus will upgrade to Vista when Microsoft fixes it.
(and so will I. If I get a new machine, Vista is coming off until looooong after they have SP1 out. When SP2 for XP came out, I hardened the machine as best I could, and waited about four months. Then I got it, and it worked.)

I'm looking forward to seeing the new software though.

The Goolag scanner has some pretty nice stuff (from a security auditor or cracker's point of view) on earlier forum software... hehe. I kinda wish I could hit SS.com with everything that scanner has and see what I get, but I'd have to have some heavy ass permission to do that, or I'd get my IP blocked and get slapped off the internet like a bad puppy. Everybody knows that being slapped off teh interwebz like a bad puppy = epic, titanic, meme/flash/running-net-joke worthy, bag-over-your-head mega fail.
