I wish I could say that the decision was based on some really
sophisticated analysis, or some extraordinarily deep insight
on my part.  But actually the truth is simply that I found
JavaBB first, it looked like a good fit for what I was trying to
do, so I started working with it.  I discovered JForum later, but
was already far enough down the path of working with JavaBB that
I didn't feel compelled to switch.

Quite possibly so.  But I now have a version of JavaBB that's hacked up
to use Acegi, which makes it fairly easy to incorporate into SSO
using CAS.  What I don't know yet is if the JavaBB guys will be
willing to merge that stuff upstream.  I'll propose it to them
and hope for the best.  If not, I may eventually switch away
from JavaBB as the default forums component.  Time will tell. :-)


TTYL,


Phil
