Right, I remember something about that.  There was quite a bit of ire, 
in some discussions, about a perceived lack of OS-friendly intentions 
among the SMF developers.

I'm not sure why this site's admins picked SMF over anything else in 
particular -- I'm betting it was the usual haphazard "google around 
until you find something that mostly works" method.  If they start 
looking for a new board, I'll recommend they look at PHPBB.
