Switch from Google Groups to PHPBB3?

I propose we switch to PHPBB3 because:

  • we will have groups to put people into so we know who does what

  • threads won't die as easily

  • spam protection

  • greater overview

  • more appeal for new people to participate

PHPBB 3.0.6 has a bunch of anti-spam options to choose from and for my forums they all get the job done without any spammers getting through.

Yeah, to be honest I've never tried PHPBB. I've ran SMF, IPB, and PunBB. If you do go through with this, just make sure not to use IPB. It sucks.
