You may want to consider Vanilla. It's fairly bare bones, though the interface radically differs from PunBB with a focus on individual conversations over categories/subforums. Phorum and FluxBB, the most obvious alternatives, also seem to be stuck. They don't seem to be making any progress in development. There's also MyBB, but it's noticeably heavier and less minimalistic. XenForo's headed in a similar direction as MyBB. It's fairly usable but proprietary software. Discourse is kind of its own thing. It also departs from the PHP stack you seem to be running, so it'd be a major switchover in more than one way. I hope this brief overview helps. > We are also thinking about posting tutorials on the site to help more ppl > find openbsd throw search engines. > > Take care all! > And thanks in advance > On that note: There have been some conversations criticizing the notion of tutorials; see https://marc.info/?l=openbsd-misc&m=150216054831531&w=2. Of course, it's your call how to proceed.
