if it's a Beta, just release it!

We won't hold you accountable for any trouble... 

Installed like a dream and works like a dream.  No problems so far.

Its getting late here in the UK so I'll be testing it tomorrow and report on what I find.

Well done and thanks

You could say that... I took you at your word about releasing it today, didn't take into account any time difference
 

Posted the release over at Joomla.org so prepare for a lot of downloads.

P.S are you listed on joomla developer site?

Thanks very much Cowboy, everything is working perfectly so far.  One thing though, I would like to take the word 'Mambo' out of the copyright info, do you mind if I do that? and if not where can I do that?  Also do you think the SMF crowd will be happier with this version of the bridge as I can see the copyright information is intact?

Where did you remove the (Mambo) from the copyright? I found the string in functions.smf.php, but my guess is that this is a function to patch some other file.  I searched SMF's index.php, subs-post.php but did not find it in there...

Hmm, yeah that was the file I found earlier, but I figured out why it's not working.  My file isn't being saved properly... via FTP, nope... via web control panel: Unable to open /public_html/administrator/components/com_smf/functions.smf.php for writing

Can't change permissions as UID is "apache" server.  What to do?  Have to contact my host?
