Thanks - I've downloaded the jforum files locally and have been looking
over the reams of documents supplied..*smile*..so added a little time
looking at the code too.

Ah, cool, so I can get a little technical :-P

I was thinking about the following setup:

en-forum would be the "master" user-database. The user is autheticated
against this one, i.e. the password and username stored there is what
counts when logging in.

User registers at <lang1> → user will be created at en-forum using the
UserREST api
User logins at <lang2> → system checks whether user exists at
en-forum, if so tries to authenticate - if authentication works, user
is created in lang2 (for setting up moderator permissions, the posting
statistics, the karma, etc).

User changes password at <lang> → password is changed at en-forum
using UserREST api

To check whether user is logged in already → use security enhanced
version of the cookie based SSO mechanism:

Sounds OK?

I'm not sure whether you can use symlinks in webapp-directories (for
updating - update files in en only instead of at each individual forum
- what would have to be run separately is to apply any database-scheme
changes if there were any)

hmm - don't know.. I need to do some house work today, my better half is
really expecting some painting gets done today..:)

I want to focus on the phpBB test site, this afternoon
- I won't be able to get to that for a couple more hours.
At that time I'll setup the roles/groups or NL admins/mods..so folks can
see how that would work out in this scheme.

After that, I've got a freshly VM w/ ubuntu server ready receive the
jForm install..will give it a shot and come back to this email ;-/
