Eros: You can also edit SMF 1.1.x like that as well... if you keep to yourself.

Oh I know. However, I'm running a RC of 2 so the upgrade is less painful in that direction. ;)

That and I'm thinking of distributing.

It wasn't meant as a command, simply a statement, in response to the question asked - the signature is hidden until you've made more posts.

Hello there, some of you might recognize the nickname from SM.org. I'm looking forward to see the "SMF 2.0 on steroids" as I call it and hoping that it will go even further with a higher frequency of updates and new/polished features after each major release.

One thing I haven't seen addressed so far by wedge:
- Scalability and performance (this is specially important among those like me that manage very large boards huge gigantic databases

Other than that and I think you're on the right track (maybe one more dev would be perhaps the ideal situation). Having had contact with vanilla forums recently I see that SMF has stagnated a little when it comes to usability, seo, performance and simplicity and I hope you can level Wedge up with the competition.

Performance is something we are looking at - but it's likely that there will need to be some tuning after Wedge 1.0 lands.

Usability, yes, getting an overhaul. Simplicity... maybe not quite so much. As for SEO, any features added are going to be added to head off discussions on the subject, not because it will actually help. You see, forum SEO for the most part is ridiculous from start to finish - how the hell do you "optimise (read: massage/tweak) content" except by rewriting it post by post when you're not submitting the content?

There are some things you can do to improve your spiderability, but you and us have been over it so many times already, both on here and SMF. Maybe an FAQ would be in order.

Even 'improving spiderability' tips I've been shown and recommended tend to lean towards the 'snake oil' category rather than anything solidly useful...
