Did you just volunteer to maintain a phpBB ?
Sure, if that's necessary.
Besides, what is wrong with mailing lists ? Email is fast, simple,
requires little space, allows people to read stuff on the move while commuting and
working, is readable easily on small display portable devices. And most important, uses
very little bandwidth, because it has no useless images, tags or other stuff that is
bloated.
They fill up my gmail inbox.
Just to clarify, this is not a flame, just arguments why mailing lists
are more useful that forums.
Thanks, hope that clears up why I suggest a phpBB.
Thanks,
Dan

Have we ever thought about creating an official Fedora php BB?
I don't know about you but mailman is something I used to use in the 90's.
I know I'll get flamed for this reply. Please don't reply about what's better
phpBB or Mailman because right now we are talking about Facebook Groups versus G+ which is
pretty sad.
Thanks,
Dan

This will ultimately carry the same problemes, although perhaps for a different
population.
It just shows we should not rely on a proprietary third-party web service as our
**primary** mean of communication.
