The current OpenEMR forums are at http://sourceforge.net/projects/openemr/forums .
There has been a lot of discussion into migrating these forums to an application with more feature; this is an ongoing discussion at: http://sourceforge.net/projects/openemr/forums/forum/202506/topic/4630751
Proposed plan:
- Set up a testing instance of phpbb3.
- Traditional forum setup, which will likely be supported out of the box.
- Skin it to integrate with site at open-emr.org (the header and footer, which will make it appear to be fully integrated into the site).
- Integrate Mailing List Features:
- Users can describe to individual forums and/or globally subscribe to all forums.
- When subscribed, the full message is emailed to the user.
- A user can reply to this message via email.
- A user can post a new message via email.
- If send email in html format, also need to send a text counterpart via multipart/alternative messages with a text/plain part and a text/html part.
- Consider integrating a bug tracker with the forum, if possible (to avoid needing to login to each separately).
- As the forum, have an option to receive, respond to posts, and make new posts through email.
- Place all sourceforge forum material on the new phpbb3 forum.
- Ensure can provide linkable clicks in the description/comments to improve integration with github/git.
- Migrate the testing site to it's new server/home. Requirements of this server will be reliability in both internet connection and emailing (since it will be a mailing list focus, can not lose any emails).
- Shut down and redirect the sourceforge forums to the new forum.
