Since I saw at least 2 members offering free bandwidth the only problem remaining to keep CCC free is maintenance. What do you think about a forum software like vbulletin (http://www.vbulletin.com) ? It has many features including moderation and a build in search engine, it has been around for some time and they provide support if there are any problems. Three downsides : 1) no diagrams parsing in messges - not a very big obstacle, I volunteer to write the code myself for that 2) it's commercial - that means paying up front $160 but that's one time fee and that's it - I am sure this could be raised through donations, I offer to send some money for this 3) lacks the minimalistic look of CCC that we all like - which might not be such a bad thing afterall Except for that I see it as a solution to the CCC problem - what do you think ? I must add that I am not associated with vbulletin in any way, I used them as example because I read a romanian forum that uses them (http://forum.softpedia.com/index.php) and I find it very nice for a forum. Best Regards, Andrei
