in thread OT: Need opinion on building a forum

YaBB is no longer being maintained, they switched over to PHP and became Simple Machines. I would recommend Ikonboard, it's written in perl and looks pretty good to me.

Also, I'm working on some forum software (needs some updating, ignore 500 errors and such) myself.../msg me if you'd like to get involved.

P.S: it's going to take more than 3-4 days work to get a fairly functional board up...be warned.

meh.
