And and OPUS to boot!
I think maybe the original poster may have been misunderstood, or perhaps he didn’t find the right words.
I have been working on a Christian theology forum of my own — not political and not a competitor to FR — that would be built with a new type of forum engine. Current forum software projects aren’t very good at building communities that revolve around ongoing, prolonged discussions. I think that was what the original poster was trying to get at.
I have been planning to give the software I am writing to Jim for use here on FR, if he ever wants it. It will take some time to write, but he might like some of my ideas.
I think there has been a miscommunication somewhere.
