<p>With funding from the &os; Foundation, the &os; forums
were migrated to XenForo software. The new software is far more
capable and easy to use. While the entire forum team
contributed, &a.danger; did a particularly excellent job
importing existing users and messages and bringing back the
often-requested "Thanks" feature. The upgrade was completed in
time to be ready for the influx of new users from the release of
&os; 10.1, and we have already seen an increase in usage.</p>
<p>Developers with an @FreeBSD.org address can contact forum
administrators to obtain the highly-desired "@" suffix on their
forum user name along with a Developer flag.</p>
<p>We want to thank the Foundation for making this possible, and
the users for their patience and continued presence on the
forums!</p>
