Re: [orca-list] OT: Two questions (Mate Q and picking a forum software)

[Peter Vágner <pvagner pvagner tk>]

Hello,

As for the forum software I like discourse https://www.discourse.org/ .
Look at it on its home page or its community. Each post is definatelly a 
heading and I have recognized other little accessibility features here 
and there.
From admin perspective it's a little bit more demanding because it's 
coded in ruby not PHP.
Except of clasic fully moderated or open forums according to your wishes 
it can also function as a mailing list meaning it might become very 
attractive to blind people.
Also it has modules for importing various other forum databases e.g. 
phpBB, SMF and similar.
As I said it may require some learning curve but it's definatelly 
something worth checking as it's still in rapid development as compared 
to the others, it's modern, it has some accessibility related features 
and it's simply awesome.


Greetings

Peter
