I have just released an upgrade package for the phpBB3 bridge to RavenNuke at http://TrickedOutNews.com. This only includes the changed files and the database upgrade from 3.0.7-PL1 to 3.0.8. This includes a security fix and many, many bug fixes. If you are using the phpBB3 bridge, upgrade is highly recommended. If you have modified files and do not wish to do the upgrade, http://phpBB.com has instructions of patching the security issue with their 3.0.7-PL1 release as well as previous releases.
