[Olpc-open] Going forward with the community forum

[Harrison - Schaaffe]

I've installed 5 extension modules relatively trouble free. The FCK editor documentation wasn't accurate, so I tried TinyMCE instead without an issue. The Email subscription module had a file permoission bug, but I managed to get over it.

Very easy to administer. The base installation is feature poor, but the add-on modules are plentiful and easy to add on. A comprehensive an dreproducible list of modules will have to be created to get full functionality.

There also seems to be a phpBB migrator tool: http://lussumo.com/community/discussion/5367/phpbb-migrator/#Comment_70848

Peter & Diana

    In the past, I've found Vanilla (http://getvanilla.com/ ) to be simple
    and visually attractive. Not sure if the feature set is a good match
    for what you want.


  Looks really promising to me. 

  Clean design, proper extension and theme support, small codebase and active community with lots of customizations available for us to drop in.
