Oh, one other thing.  Could you post a PayPal pre-order link when you cross into Beta territory.  :P
IIRC Wedge is free, but you can support the developers by :
  • using their software(of course)
  • Buy premium plugins
  • Buy merchandise(mug,shirt)

Note, in all the cases I'm talking about, I'm looking at no more than $10 for a *lifetime* subscription. It's not about making money. It is about limiting support and I know I'll be putting at least some of that back towards hosting in the end, too. It is no accident that Wedge supports lifetime subscriptions as a core feature.
About the support, so it will be a private forum for support?

Any first group created by anyone would be called 'Friends' by default. Or 'Contacts', I'm not sure. I suspect that people would never create more than one group anyway. (How many of you with a FB account have *several* friend lists...? It'd be interesting to know. I have a few, but I know it took me years to get there.)
I have several friend list, to differentiate school friends(High School,University) Work friends(former,current) Online Game Friends(several title).

If you talked about forum groups. I'm using groups to categorize member that enrolled on same year(it's university forum). I think it's standard use.

Ah... Thanks. I don't really get the context, so it just confused me. Never used SMF in live site, so nothing much to say.

Yes, 7 is faster than XP on slower machines. That was true even for beta builds.
Wow, I never know this. I just assumed because it is newer it will be more demanding.

May I inject a word or two of explanation here. There's a very good reason why IE6/IE7 are still in quite wide usage around the world - the users' hardware platform. Third world countries are dumping grounds for first world technology discards and the best these PCs can use is Windows XP. I honestly do not believe that XP will die-off for quite a while, possibly continuing to be in significant use for the next 4 or 5 years.


As I've mentioned previously, I administer two sites (one live, the other about to be) which are aimed at users living in the Philippines. Both are on heavily-modified SMF platforms and I've had to ensure the display templates work for XP users (with IE) as well as for those with more modern platforms. I do intend to convert both to Wedge - for two reasons: SMF support frankly sucks and, more importantly, plug-ins won't necessitate me having to dig into the core code in order to implement them. But it is my fervent hope that some thought will be given to providing a theme which provides most of the functionality but is compatible with IE6/IE7 (and possibly forced upon detection of the user agent).
Wow.. may I know what your site niche/demographic is? I'm from Indonesia and  from analytics[1] I see 63.86% use firefox, 24.94% Chrome, 6.88% Opera and Opera Mini (combined) , 1.63% IE. I'm genuinely curious as why in Philippines your visitor still use IE and not changing their browser themselves.
 1. This site only have approximately 6000 visitor per month, 92.42% from Indonesia

I use BitBucket, unlimited private repos for free account. Recently it added Git support.
