Respected people here,

I am fully aware that there is an old age contoversy as regards phpbb; vbulletin; sm forum; IPB;

I dont want to raise any controversy but just want answers to few questions:

# OUT of Phpbb; vbulletin; simple machines and invision power board:

Q1. Which is open source (meaning whose source code is freely available).....????

Q2. Which requires paying money but with source code...?????

Q2. What language and database each one of them use....?????

I would really really appreciate if someone can reply to all my three questions with respect to all four forums that i have said above....!!!!!!!!

Thanks in advance
