John,

Would you be interested in taking a look at Zoho Discussions (http://discussions.zoho.com/home) for your need? It is a powerful solution for setting up a user / developer community and is an offering from the Zoho suite of products. Zoho Discussions provides a lot of features (http://discussions.zoho.com/features) comparable (and in many respects better than phpBB).

Feel free to contact me at dhan [at] zohocorp [dot] com or support [at] zohodiscussions [dot] com to discuss this further. Will be more than happy to support you in any way we can. :)

And since we use jQuery across Zoho, and greatly benefit from the productivity it offers, I am happy to offer the entire solution for free for your website - for as long as you choose to run it.

Regards

Dhan

Product Manager, Zoho Discussions
