BuddyPress.org

I agree that the setup is not ideal – users should be able to post new topics anytime and then chose where to post in. Like this it is far too complicated – I plan to run a help forum – so registration and posting of topics should be as easy as it gets.

But since BuddyPress uses the full bbpress files, it should be possible to do exactly that, using some of the basic kakumei files?
