Forum

Now that the forum on bitcoin.sourceforge.net is catching on, we really
should look for somewhere that freehosts full blown forum software.  The
bitweaver forum feature is just too lightweight.  I assume the "Forum"
tab on the homepage can link out to wherever the forum is hosted.

I've seen projects that have major following just from forum talk and
pie-in-the-sky planning without even having any code yet.  Having a lot
of forum talk gives a project more presence on the net, more search
hits, makes it look big, draws new users in, helps solve support
questions, hashes out what features are most of wanted.

It would be a big plus if it could support SSL, at least for the login
page if not sitewide.  Multiple people on the forum have expressed
interest in TOR/I2P, and those users need SSL because a lot of TOR exit
nodes are probably password scrapers run by identity thieves.  A lot of
the core interest in Bitcoin is going to be from the privacy crowd.

Any ideas where we can get a free forum?  Maybe we should look at where
some other projects have their forums hosted for ideas where to look.
