I'm now working on release 1.1.1, codename "Pagoda", which will finally support updates from legacy 1.0.8 versions. i'm also busy with the Efforts-Gear points branch.

this is a schematic of the intended structure for future 1.1.x releases.

• we'll tie the phpbb member table to the player table so you can then maintain the characters from your own UCP.
• new tables for boss progress, eliminating the huge language files.
• a "game" table, allowing multi-game guilds.

i'm still pondering the use of foreign keys. maybe that's overkill.

Very nice indeed, if you need someone to make a layout for the Bossprogress, let me know!

i've updated the development Status. if all goes to plan, we'll deliver all these for Cata.

The first part of the Cataclysm prologue just started on live servers. Alliance players will find the Operation Gnomeregan event in Dun Morogh and Horde players should go to Durotar for Zalazane's fall.
