[Wikipedia-l] Wikimedia Boards disabled for now

[Brion Vibber]

For a while we experimented with a bulletin-board discussion site 
(running on phpBB) at http://boards.wikimedia.org/  This hasn't been 
used since August as far as I can see.

A serious security vulnerability has been announced in phpBB recently; 
rather than add to our maintenance burden for an unused site I'm taking 
the boards offline. If there's a sudden demand for it, we could upgrade 
it and put it back online.
