This subject has not been discussed in the year I have been subscribing to
this list. I hope it is on target for this group.

I would like to start a user-friendly, Web-based bulletin board system which
would allow people to take part in discussions using only their Web browser.

The concept seems simple enough.

A person would come to the home (top) page and select a hyperlink to a
discussion topic.

Eash topic page would function as a separate forum/newsgroup.

Is the concept feasible or have I missed something? Has anyone seen something
like this in practice?

TIA
