Why is this board 15.0?
« on: September 11, 2008, 02:17:59 pm »

Nothing to do with the software itself, but this board is called 15.0? Any rhyme or reason to that?

Does it matter?  :)

I am not an SMF forum software expert, but probably an automatic numbering system created the number. I am aware of 14 other boards (a couple of them are not public) so logically the next free number was 15. I guess child boards (which are possible with many forum programs) would get numbers like 15.1, 15.2 and so on.

It's the unique identifier for the category.  I asked a while back what the missing numbers are.  They are probably internal, secret categories.  Hover each category and you'll see its ID.
