Ok, let me start off by saying that I did go back about a month looking through posts to see if this had been discussed recently.  Also, there are no community memories to check. So I feel that I've done my best to look before I post.  Also, I understand that the "these forums are the best" debate will go on forever and that it's impossible to get an unbiased answer.  That's why I just want opinions.

I'm looking for a nice, simple message board package for a client's website.  The only feature I absolutely need is the ability to attach files.  I don't want anything bloated or full of security holes, and I don't want anything that's not free.  So no phpBB, no vBulleting, no Invision PB, etc.

There are three that I am looking at right now:
PunBB
MyBB
SMF

Now, PunBB would be my first choice since it is really simple, trimmed down, and looks nice.  However, the File Attachment mod for the newest version isn't done yet.

So I'm looking for opinions on the other two.  Anybody use either of them and have good/bad things to say?  Also, are there other, better free message boards out there that I'm missing?
