phpBB, FreeCAD style forum is better than discourse, it has some graphics,
colors and more of an identity than discourse that is almost purely text and
sterile. A forum with nice colors, octave colors, maybe some Octave musical
notes as pictures, it gives the forum an identity which is good at a human
level. And the whole point is to attract humans.
