Forum Engine for Google App Engine (Python environment). I could not find good forum (messageboard) engine for Google App Engine, Python environment. So I decided to create my own forum engine and contribute it in open-source. I am planning to use it in some of my GAE projects. Demo: http://gforum-demo.appspot.com Design guidelines: - No user registration at all. Use only third-party platforms like: Google Accounts, Facebook, Twitter, MyOpenID, VKontakte, Mail.Ru. This is done via single sign-on platform Loginza
- SEO-friendly links to forums and threads - forum and thread permalinks include forum title and thread title respectively
- Design via themes - clean and simple. It should not be overloaded with unnecessary details
- Use of Gravatars
- Can paste images or make links to outside images (at Flickr, for example)
- i18n
- Social engagement features (buzz, Facebook like, Tweet buttons etc...)
- Automatic sitemap generation
- Private messages for users
- RSS/ATOM feeds for threads/forums
- Reasonable administrator interface: create/edit forums, see list of users, ban/unban users and more
