[support] Best forums?

[Tim Vaughan]

Yup, I'd much prefer to use a native Drupal forum setup.  I'm just
playing around at the moment with UIEforum which looks ok although I'm
guessing it will be obseleted if the DruBB project gets running for
6.x.
The main advantages for me of a native Drupal forum are a consistent
theme and having a single user table.

Thanks for the links, I'll take a look and see what works best :)
