The easiest way to create from scratch with all of the dependant
tables is to create a new SetupForumParticipant object and call
initialize(Datasource).

Normally this method isn't needed and the ForumStructureManager can be
used, but since you don't have the Account, DatabaseUsers,
DatabaseSessions, DatabaseRemember and CMF tables this is necessary.

Create the datasource and set the DATASOURCE config property to the
name. At some point Bamboo will support IoC datasources all over, but
as of yet that hasn't happened.

Integrating your auth is a question I can't answer. I don't know your
auth system. If you were to write a RIFE-auth wrapper for it, it would
work perfectly, if not, you may have to edit Bamboo and create a more
tight integration. We don't use outside auth systems, so there is no
support for them in Bamboo.

Unfortunately it's because Bamboo is not a stable product in the sense
that it isn't yet designed for mainstream adoption. It is, however,
stable in the "it doesn't crash or have major showstopper bugs". If
you're willing to put up with its more... "entertaining" features then
Bamboo can be your best friend. If not, then you might want to wait
for 1.0. Just remember that Bamboo is used, integrated and maintained
by the people who wrote it, so some things are obscure and
undocumented. The best way to figure something out is to look at the
source. It's reasonably well documented with comments and it's pretty
clean. At the very least, it's the fastest way to get your questions
answered.
