If Beast is something you'd want to explore, then I'd recommend
Altered Beast which, I think, is a fork that's actually active in its
development.

Mohit,
Have you thought about integrating Beast with Radiant? I think there
was some work done on this in the past. Not sure if it ever came to
fruition. Just wondering why you want to use SMF.

Hi Guys
After a relatively futile search for a BBS/ Forum written in Rails
which I could use, I seem to have finally settled on Simple
Machines Forum (SMF) for a site I'm building. I'm coupling the
forum with Radiant so that the "static" content is served out of
Radiant with the ability to add comments to the content, but most
of the interaction-heavy parts are handled by the Forum. It
naturally provides conversations/ discussions and also has support
for multiple boards and even polls.
I also saw an extension that makes it easier for people to write
full-length articles using that as the base - and plan to use it as
the equivalent of an "opinionated wiki", i.e., the content is lead
by one person and the others discuss it (I know this point is
contentious and there may be a lot of debate about it).
All the same, I was wondering if anyone has any experience in
making the two work together? I think I may not want too much from
it - but share some data about users, recent posts, etc. I think
it would be too much work to "share layouts" but a few days of CSS
work with it has resulted in very similar looking pages. I can
live with that.
Any ideas anyone? (Just for completeness, SMF is written in PHP.)
Cheers,
Mohit.
