Luckily the open source community had my back and after a lot of research I was able to find and get working several conversion scripts that I found online, these scripts with a little love will help you get out of that musty old perl-based UBB classic forum, once and for all.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have to say, open source is great, and one of the most known open source projects is FireFox.Â  FireFox is IE&#8217;s biggest competition, and I have to say even with IE8 finally pushing IE in the CSS/XHTML standards direction, FireFox is pushing beyond with its implementation of technologies like SVG and CSS3.Â  In FireFox [...]]]></description>
