大家好，
我们很高兴得宣布phpBB3 RC6包的发布。这是第六个（很有可能是最后一个）候选版本，意味着如果没有严重的错误的发生的话，就是黄金版本了。
这个版本几乎是一个由SektionEins执行的外部的安全审核的成果。所有标记为[Sec]的部分，都是由那个公司为执行和显示一些我们能修复的基本的问题而建立的。我们很骄傲，审核的结果显示了，没有SQL注入的脆弱性和严重的命令执行脆弱性。
For release candidates full
support is given, allowing language packs as well as modifications and
styles. We only give support to those having a clean RC installation or
updates from previous release candidates. Previous conversions or
updates from betas will not be supported here.
We encourage only those running the release candidates wanting to test
out the new version, it is still recommended to wait for the full
release; after all this is a release candidate.
Please
also note that we urge you to update - we only support the latest
version. Bug reports submitted for previous releases will be closed as
well as only the latest version being supported here.
