Today I'm releasing Pomby Version 0.10 

This version has completely re-worked all of the original aphpkb code to use smarty for the site design and PDO for the database connection. 

Improvements: 

• 0 Chance of SQL injection
• Admin area is now inaccessible to non-admins now (even if they know the url)
• Keywords now display in a tag cloud
• Install has been made easier
• Various minor improvements

Upgrading:

To upgrade from either aphpkb or pomby version 0.01 run the following sql command on your database and you are all set: "ALTER TABLE  `articles` ADD FULLTEXT (`Keyw`);"

This change is fully backwards compatible. if you dont like pomby after installing simply put your aphpkb install back to where it was and you wont notice a thing.

Next Version:

for the next version of the software we will be focusing on security and customizing (but mostly security). We will be going over all of the code to remove all possibilities of cross site scripting and malicious code insertion. 

Now dont let my above paragraph scare you, all the posts on pomby are already required to be screened by an administrator.  this should prevent most malicious code from entering your site.

New Developer:

We have a new developer to the Zachary who will be helping with the look and feel of the site.  and in the future doing a lot of javascript work when we come to that point.
