[Mod note]
Bah! Stupid PHPbb... can't merge threads by default. I personally can't wait for an alternate forum with integration working with MODx!

Just for information.
ZI posted the orginal link for mytopix ... I just brought it over since I thought it was interesting.

MyTopix license is incompatible w/ the GPL.
Among the highlights: you are only allowed one installation to be accessable by one URL, you may not reverse engineer, disassemble, or create derivative works based on the Software for distribution or usage outside your web site, distribute the Software, or modify the software to function in more than instance or location (URL, domain, subdomain, etc.) from a single set of source program files unless each location is separately licensed.
It really looks like they intend to charge for it once it comes out of beta. Regardless, from the way I read the EULA, even if you were to create modifications to allow it to run in the CMS, the best you could do is distribute the instructions to tell others how to do it, too-- you couldn't distribute the actual mods themselves.
Not sure this is important or not, just thought I'd point it out.

i am going to be start working on integrating SMF as soon as I can. I have been playing around with it a lot, and the end goal being MODx as cms, SMF as the forums, and Gallery1.5 as the album. this is going to replace my current audi community site. been playing with mkportal which ties into smf really easily and i would like to start reverse engineering how they tie together. There are some really nice features with SMF out the box that just arent there for phpBB.
