Hello and thank you for your comments.

Is this still phpBB or has the software changed to something else?

phpbb with several modifications.


i believe that the tc newspapers should be also there though...i guess there is a reason for it?

The news headlines are given by CyprusNet. Headlines from more newspapers might be available in the future.

The only downsite is that the "regular" style is a bit slower.

If you have a slow dial-up connection the light style might be a better choice.

what is RSS and ATOM feed.

Here is a quick explanation taken from Wikepedia:

Web syndication is a form of syndication in which a section of a website is made available for other sites to use. This could be simply by licensing the content so other people can use it, but more commonly these days web syndication refers to making Web feeds available from a site so other people can display an updating list of content from it (for example one's latest forum postings, etc.). This originated with news and blog sites but is increasingly used to syndicate any information.

Although the format could be anything transported over HTTP, such as HTML or JavaScript, it is more commonly XML. Considerable discussion about the right format has led to RSS, which has several parallel versions, and more recent attempts produced the new Atom web syndication format and protocol.
