Description

One of our members (who is on the CAT) has asked that we consider adding a forum plugin like SimplePress that can be integrated into blogs. He wants a blog, rather than a group, to be the home for his project's activity, in part because he finds the blog/group split confusing (obviously, he's not alone in that).

This makes sense to me, and it seems like it would be an interesting experiment. I'm assigning this to Boone for technical decisions (I'm guessing that this kind of plugin has the potential to tax our database if used widely), but adding Chris as a watcher for UI issues and Michael/the community team as watchers for community implications.

He's not particular about which forum plugin we add, but here is the simplepress plugin page: http://simple-press.com/ .
