Submission + - Web forum software

frisket writes: "A research project has asked me (as webadmin) to set up a web forum for them, with password protection, topics groupable by category, and time-limited threads. I've run phpBB before, but it's a time-sink on maintenance and very clumsy to administer (and PHP has its own problems; although I do have Tomcat and Cocoon available as well). What FOSS forum software do other /.ers prefer or recommend?"

Submission + - Ethics of website adverts

frisket writes: "I run a number of pro bono tech information sites. I've been approached by a (perfectly genuine) internet marketeer wanting to pay for a link. My suspicion is that they are just looking to boost their page rank, rather than actually get leads or business. I already fund the sites from Google Adsense, but there's no conflict. So I though I'd ask /.ers: do I bow to the almighty $ or keep my site aloof?"
