Yes it does Juho. I'm use to the old fashioned forum like phpBB, MyBB and Delphi etc so that is what I think of as a forum. Of course everyone on the site is one big group.
I'm glad to see they will be separating the two so that you can have both. I can see where in some cases people would want the old fashioned forum type feature where others would want groups and in some cases both.
Since releases can take some time, I'm not holding you to it, would Elgg 2.0 be within the next year or are we looking at maybe three to five years since we are now only approaching 1.10.0?
My guess is that it will take 1-2 years to get the discussions into their own plugin.
I was checking to see if Elgg has plugin for MyBB or if MyBB has one for Elgg and I struck on both. I guess I'll have to keep MyBB separate until then or remove it and do without a standard forum until then.
