 * I love the idea, but is there an easy way to get the forum-like functionality
   without the ugly forum look? I’ve tried for years to turn a forum into a decent
   looking CMS.
 * Personally i preffer the first post of any forum post to show up as like a clean
   article and the the reply and subsequent thres just the way they already do in
   word press. Would this be possible? Or at the very least only do the forum layout
   for certain category as opposed to the entire blog so we can still make use of
   standard page and post views in our sites. It seems if you turn the entire thing
   into a forum then you would still end up with the same problem we have today 
   where you still need two installations one cms and one forum in order to run 
   a community site. Much better to work from a single user database if ya know 
   what i mean.
