Hi,

is RForum dead ?  
There is no new version since 2005 rubyforge.  
Does anybody know alternatives written with rails (only in case Rforum  
is dead)  
At the moment I change the code in direction support for postgres  
database schemas but I would not do this if the project is dead.

I don’t think it’s dead I think it’s just very lowly lowly maintained 🙂  
So…you’d prolly be maintaining your own code if you wrote one.  
Take care.
