[Project-managers] Discussion forums

[Ted Ralphs]

Hi all,

By request from one of the PMs, we have decided to try installing 
software for hosting discussion forums. If you have any experience with 
open source software for discussion forums or any opinion on how we 
should proceed, please let me know. If you want to poke around and look 
at options, here are a few links:

http://www.cmsreview.com/Forums/OpenSource.html
http://www.phpbb.com/
http://getvanilla.com/
http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/DiscussionPlugin

The first is a fairly comprehensive list of options, while the others 
are specific alternatives.

Cheers,

Ted
