[Zope] Anyone using ZDiscussions?

[J. Atwood]

I looked at Squishdot and it seemed fine, but not really a discussion group,
board etc. It is a website in and of itself. I am looking for something to
replace WWWBoard, UBB or Phorum. I would love to build a SQL backend for all
of that but don't have the time right now.

After playing with ZDiscussions it is not bad. I have been able to hack a
few things to get them to work a bit more like most board (sorting orders,
replies). 

I have not been able to get my hands on or even view the PTK.
