UBB 6.1.0 went out to the general public over two weeks ago, with minimal problems.
We are now running the first beta of 6.2.0, which will include a whole bunch of new features.
This update brings updates to the registration system and profile. We've enabled COPPA protection here. In order to register, you now must enter your birth date.
Existing users may also alter your birthdates using your profiles. It's up to you whether you want to make the birth date information public or not.
Please feel free to register test accounts to test the system (just make sure that you note it being a test profile in the profile).

I noticed profiles no longer say when and what was a person's last post. Yet again, a minor nitpick.

Yeah, that data's there, just no longer displayed. You can click on the "view user post history" link on the profile page to get a list of recent posts instead.
(And user-selected custom titles are unlikely, FYI.)
Made a couple more updates... the date field should now be in a more logical order (using the same order that the rest of the dates on the board use)

Charles, it would be nice if you could put on some sort of Private Message Alert so we know we have PMs without going into the Profile?
Like i.e.: where is says.
� Hello, *username* [ log out ] you have X new Private Messages.
Not everyone checks their profile all the time, and the last time I sent someone a PM, I had to send a message via ICQ to let them know they have a PM from me.....

I know. The_Tom sent me a memo, but I didn't find out until a few days later when I just happen to check my profile.

Because the email server I used to sign up here, [email protected] is dead. My real address is Yahoo and it won't let me use it.

To say nothing of the moronic fact that, when "notified" by email, the entire message text is sent to you, thus negating the purpose of the original message.
