So, really, thank you all for bearing with us while we got here, and while we deal with the immediate things we've seen from it - and you'll be able to see the rough edges get polished, things get tweaked, things get added or removed. It's been a long road thus far, and it's not nearly over yet - but you're certainly welcome to join us for the ride :)
You are thanking us? I personally have to thank you guys for all the work and the patience. I am and will remain a noob with these kind of stuff you guys are doing. But I am a noob who appreciates the commitments and the sacrifices of others. Thank you guys. Keep wedging into the future.

Soms, just wanted to point out that for now, there will not be any converters for SMF 1.x, only for SMF 2.0... It's already complicated enough as it is, what with the thousand changes ;) So you'd probably better try and upgrade. Or harrass TE until he makes a SMF1 converter :P
I am just going to do a clean install of Wedge when it is ready and let the old forum just fade away. Some people still like the Soviet Lada. But sometimes you have to move on in life. People who are really committed are bound to join my new (Wedge) forum when it is there.

My new domain is just sitting there waiting for Wedge.
Same here. Wedge is the reason my forum still reads Powered by SMF 1.1.14  instead of Powered by SMF 2.0. After waiting 5 years for 2.0 to be final, I can wait 5 more weeks for Wedge to be Alpha. I admire your passion & commitment guys.

I don't see that happening anytime soon, with the pressure the SMF Team is putting over the community...
Just look at how they destroy every single signature with a reference to us.
If I can trust the Facebook page numbers, we have 37 friends, so that's about the number of people (give or take a hundred) who'll be using Wedge eventually. SMF has hundreds of thousands, AFAIK. Not the same league. They're in the 'big boys' league. We're in the independent league (i.e. those who do all the work but don't get the publicity.) At least we don't have to put up with the support. Well, I don't.
I don't for one really believe one word you wrote here Nao. The reason there are only 37 Wedge friends on FB now is that people still don't know about Wedge, the product. Once they see the end product, I am sure you dont need to hire PR company to spread the word. Some of us noobs with no technical skills are roaming and salivating in the background to spread the word once we get to taste the "forbidden" fruit[1].

If the product is good, which without a doubt Wedge will be, people will flock to it. Who were the people responsible for some of the most popular mods that drove traffic to SMF in 2009/2010/2011? And if you have all of those people combining their skills to make Wedge, one can only hope that you guys are capable of handing the tsunami of people who undoubtedly will use Wedge once it is launched.

No you are not in the same league as SMF. You are going to probably going to be in a super league of your own before you know it  :eheh:

 1. SMF is trying its best, some might say its worst, to erase all references to Wedge. I'll bet you a Euro, they will fail as soon as Wedge appears on the scene
