If you want a forum on freenet, then sure, it is one of at least three
different forum systems. It's a standalone Java program (that operates
over your freenet node in the background.) FMS is a similar, newer and
better standalone program, written in C. Freetalk is an even newer
system, written as a Java plugin to your node, and installed/accessed
via your node's control panels (normally) -- although I hear it (still)
has performance issues.

Naturally, none of these systems talk to each other. We can hack up
sophisticated mathematical elliptical curve ciphers and complex routing
algorithms for ad-hoc network topologies, but creating compatible
protocols is simply beyond us.
