1. This forum is run from a nntp (newsgroup) server and is accessible via a news reader, like
Outlook Express, etc. or the MS Community Web Interface.
2. You can easily see how the FP discussion web will work and look, by creating one as a subsite and
publishing it to a server that has the FP extensions via FP's http mode using File Menu | Publish
Site.
3. If you have used prior versions of FP, the discussion web is unchanged, is still limited in
functionality. Many FP users opt for a 3rd Party Application that is database driven.
