My apologies in advance if this is a bit off topic, but...
On a rather old site we have a dreadful old bulletin board system based on Matt Wright's WWWBoard - all horrid text files and ancient Perl code. We want to replace that with a decent forum system based on MySQL and PHP, but there's no money so it'll have to be a free one. We also need to be able to roll it into our existing database by adding more tables, rather than adding a separate database. Naturally, the easier it is to set up the better. And the real icing on the cake would be to find a script for converting between WWWBoard and whichever one we choose, though I suspect that might be too much to ask. I should be able to roll my own converter script if need be.
The host we're using has PHP 4.3.10 and MySQL 3.23.56, so that rules out some I've found, but these seem promising from a quick look:
