Added a new class: phpBB login

Nice information.

I'll look into those classes and see how we can write phpslash to use both 
phpBB and phpslash DBs (a la PAM, modify the slashAuth or whatever other 
classes with the information from the classes you mentioned here).
That way would be better for other people who don't have full control of the 
server running their phpslash. Then we can put those files in the "contrib" 
directory with a README explaining how to expand the authentication for a 
phpslash site to use other methods as well as the default one.

Then we can start worrying about how users would create new accounts, and 
other things... which in reality are simpler (point the link or phpslash 
module to the phpBB one -- or whatever other forum, album, ..., software)

If we get this to work, phpslash 0.8 should really be renamed 1.0 :-)

>Author: MARY Matthieu <[email protected]>

>Description:
>This class is meant to provide user authentication to sites that have

>This class avoids the need to create or install another authentication
>system if you already have installed or plan to install phpBB.
>
>For now, this class supports only user authetication  but not to add,
>update or delete user records. These features are planned to be supported
>in future versions of this class.
