I'm looking to put together a forum / planet apache replacement that can

that?

RE: [DISCUSSION] -- Hackernews style social media / blog site for planet apache

2024-10-21 Thread ishita jaiswal
Hi Drew,
I think the idea of reviving a Planet Apache as a message board is fantastic! 
Having a centralized discussion platform with features like upvotes, downvotes, 
and LDAP authentication would streamline community engagement. It would also be 
a great tool for fostering collaboration and providing a space for important 
discussions like job postings.
I'd be interested in contributing to this initiative and am happy to help 
however I can. Let me know if there are specific areas where you'd need 
assistance, and I'd love to brainstorm further on how to bring this to life.
Best regards,
Ishita Jaiswal
