What is the security risk of transferring PMs over? I would think allowing people to import the PMs into the new forum would cause additional risks as PMs might be able to be faked, ect
It just makes me extremely nervous to transfer this huge chunk of very-private data from this extremely-battle-hardened software onto new software.
Ah, this was unexpectedly great to hear. So exactly what is the plan once the beta finishes, a merge of everything (i.e. threads and posts made on both 'forums')?
Anything you post on beta.bitcointalk.org outside of Beta discussion will be deleted in the final merge.
