I second on that one : FluxBB (which is based on PunBB) may be a good choice. It only includes what is really needed in a public web forum, and nothing else (for exemple, it does not includes a private messaging feature), so it is not as bloated as other forum engines might be, and it even works with PostgreSQL (by this I mean it is not limited to just MySQL...). But it's also somewhat hard to maintain from a sysadmin point of view. You have to modify the base source code by your own hands if you want to add some feature; the idea behind this is that you are forced to know what you do to add something that may be broken or insecure, so the community does not give you any patch nor automated process to modify the base source code.
