====== Goals ====== Web forums are fairly common these days. The canonical forum would be Slashdot. In some ways, they've replaced mailing lists. We don't necessarily want to replace the DISCUSS list, but it would be nice to see what the forums might be able to provide us. Maybe there's a mailing-list-to-forum gateway, where users could choose to use the web-based forum, or email. ====== Alternatives ====== Several forum applications are available: * [[http://www.phpbb.com/ | phpBB]] * [[http://www.phorum.org/ | Phorum]] (seems to have mailing list integration) * [[http://www.punbb.org/ | PunBB]]
