You can use NNTP and a competent newsreader, I suggest opera
mail.
Having to install a new program on my computer just to read D
news is not really an option to me and possibly many newcomers.
I can instantly search all posts from all years in Opera. I can
read posts offline if I don't have access.
By modern forum software I mean discussion centric software
like disqus[1].
The only thing extra it provides is voting. We could
potentially add voting to the forum software, but I won't use
it, since I use NNTP.
That would be great, but as you said, people like you won't be
able to see it, which somewhat defeats its purpose.
I will mention that I love disqus for web sites I visit
casually. But I don't think it's a good fit here, as most users
have their own way of accessing the data.
