Inkscape Forum - Django forum

Errrrrrcchh!!  (That's the brakes - left turn ahead!)  I'm changing the title, 
in case this part of the thread goes long.

While I appreciate all the effort by everyone involved, and especially Martin 
for creating it - I think it's going to be a long row to hoe, to convince forum 
members to go from a fully featured forum to a minimalistic one.

In all honesty, I'd be one of those who will be hard to convince.

I think you'd have to have:

1 - text editing - bold, italics, underline (could probably live without color, 
size, font)
2 - ability to insert images into messages
3 - capacity on the server and ability to attach files (many acceptable 
formats - minimally whatever formats Inkscape supports, plus some standards such 
as zip, txt, odt, jpg....)

And I'll just echo Patrick on the rest.  Naturally text and image links would be 
needed.  Without searching, the forum would be crippled.  And of course, 
moderation.  I could come up with minimal moderation features, if it would be 
helpful.

If the Django forum could have such features, it would be *awesome* because then 
gallery members don't have to register separately for the forum!

But Martin, if the rest of this little team responds that they are ready to move 
forward without the InkscapeForum files, it gives you precious little time.

Personally, I'm at the end of my patience.  We waited for Courtney for a year, 
the first time.  (Well, at least I did, although I think everyone else gave up 
long before.)  And now it's been at least 3 months on this 2nd try.  I guess 
I've seen you work lightening fast before.  But geez!  Personally, if the rest 
of the team is ready, I'm ready now.

All best,
brynn

ps - I'm using Reply All, I don't know why it's not putting all the addresses 
in....argh.

Hi all,

The website is running a bit more quickly than before. I'd like to
resubmit the original forum design for consideration:

https://inkscape.org/forums/

It could do with a designer to work on the pages.

Martin,
