Evaluation
- Pros:

- Cons:
- bar
Skin
- Needs a Camino-like skin
- The color differentiation between discussions with new content and those without needs to be stronger (at least on the "All Discussions" flat page) (too many light pastels)
- Move "Start a New Discussion" link next to "All Discussions" (on the flat page) / "Categories" / "Category Name"
- That's where it is in the existing forum, and I find myself not noticing it in the lefthand sidebar
- Posting page needs links to BBCode and Markdown syntax references
- Not everyone will be familiar with these already (i.e., new Camino users, first time to the forum)
Function
- BBCode lists work fine in the preview but are broken in the actual post (only the first item is converted into a list item); see this post, "How do I know what processor..." section)
- How do we do PM? froodian turned on “whispers” but neither of us can find how/where to do it....
Other
- Upgrade to the current version
