YAF - Yet Another Forum

I was given an opportunity to set up a technical forum where people can discuss about technical stuffs. I was looking for ways to start and obviously my first preference was something open source. Thanks to Gautam (my colleague) to introduce me to YAF - Yet Another Forum. It is a .Net based open source forum control written in C#. It is really great. It was so easy to deploy, I was amused. I just simply loved it. The source is available here and the wiki as well. The funny part is there is also a forum about "Yet Another Forum" where people discuss about it. This seems like a snake eating herself from the tail, hehe. (Bad Jokh). But the moral of the story is I am impressed with such lovely open source tool with such a huge set of features. Kudos to all who are behind its creation.
