We are working on a project where we need a forum based social networking site, where users can communicate ideas with designated moderators. There will be 2 classes of users. Basic and administrator. Basic will have access to post questions, administrator can reply to posted questions and delete questions. Site will include about 10 other information pages that will consist of the main web site. ie: home, about the program, what we do, etc.
Must be a section 508 compliant. Is there any open source section 508 compliance forum available ?
It may be too late to answer your question, but you could try Vanilla Forums. It has a different layout from most forum systems but it is pretty much section 508 compliant. It is also open-source.
