AI Thread Summary
The PF Library is closing as it transitions to a new software platform, rendering the current library incompatible. All content from the PF Library will be migrated to the Physics and Math FAQs for continued access. Participants are encouraged to identify their contributions, as creator information will be lost during the transfer. The community expresses mixed feelings about the upcoming changes, reflecting on the evolution of the platform over the years. The transition aims to enhance user experience with the anticipated PF 5.0.

The PF Library has been a success by offering dozens of material to curious visitors! We thank everyone who has participated. Over the next several months PF will be planning to migrate to a new software platform and thus the Library will no longer be compatible. We plan on moving all PF Library content to the Physics and Math FAQs for future reference.

* Nearly all the entries lost the creator information. So if you want recognition please let me know which entries you wrote. Thanks!

Well the cat is out of the bag :) I'll post more on that in the coming months. PF 5.0 is going to rock!

btw, pardon the dust and extra new thread notices as we transfer the data to the FAQs.

Yeah like the other changes that happened here in more than 10 years.

It's a pity I didn't printscreen all the different layers PF has had over the years.

When I started at PF, the Nuclear Engineering forum had 27 threads and 380 posts (from Wayback).

Now the NE forum has over 1520 threads, and I don't know how many posts.
