[Discuss] Want web site with feedback option?

[Greg Rundlett (freephile)]

Hi Scott,

It sounds like you want to have a question/answer system, or FAQ system
similar to StackExchange and such.

You might try hosting for free http://stackexchange.com/sites if you are
trying to build an open community.

There are other options if you would rather manage your own.

If you use PHP, I see
* phpMyFAQ http://www.phpmyfaq.de/
* osFAQ which integrates with osTicket http://osfaq.oz-devworx.com.au/
and Python has OSQA http://www.osqa.net/download/ , but they haven't
released an update since they went commercial with another product.

~ Greg
