But the UBB is PHP based? So developing the WWWThreads Perl version would of been a better decision as they could then offer a broader spectrum of products? They could of offered the PHP UBB to non-programmers (as Susanne pointed out) and the more powerful WWWThreads to more experienced web masters.
Although I believe this point is completly invalid. You don't need any experience of Perl whatsoever to run GossamerForum, as anyone who has isntalled it will tell you.
It just seems to me at the end of the day that they are trying to either save money by cutting out all their perl programmers from the loop, or they actually don't feel that their perl code can compete with the others on the market.
