Discourse forum

[Oliver Kraitschy]

Hi Jo,

i was also looking for a forum software some weeks ago and chose Discourse as
well. One of the developers of Discourse is one of the co-founders of Stack
Overflow so i assume that the design and quality of the software is not too
bad ;-)

Greetings,
Oliver
