Graham: Thanks for your input! Ideatorrent does look good. The only thing that Rufus and I wondered about, is would it be nice if users were integrated with KnowledgeForge user management, so users could have a single OpenID login for a suite of OKF services? Currently it does not support OpenID yet [1], but of course this may change. Also can any OKF infrastructure people (James? John? Rufus?) advise on whether it is technically a good match for our infrastructure? I think its PHP, PostgreSQL and Drupal [2]. Of course this does not preclude us setting up an instance, but it would be nice if it fit neatly with the technology we have.
Ed: Vilfredo looks interesting - thanks for the suggestion! At the moment I am inclined to think we want something that is in full release, tested, stable - and that preferably that could be integrated with our existing infrastructure. But we should definitely keep an Vilfredo (Suggest, as this is quite a technical discussion - we should move this to okfn-help?)
