[edit] History
Started in August 2003, as an assignment for Andrew Gallant in his Sophomore year in high school to create a project useful to the community. An English teacher needed a message board for a literary club, so it started out as a simple school project.
Became a community project after events transpired with the school could not support the message board anymore.
[edit] Support
Support are generally given from the forums.
Interestingly, the officially supported version is 2 Alpha 3, a pre-release software, and the stable 1.1.6 is actually officially unsupported. Both versions can be seen as buggy in a sense.
