bbpress has been around for a long long time.
It's not that good.
Maybe the new version will be ? Seems unlikely.
I have tinkered with it for more than a year myself and until they swithced bbpress to a plugin I hated it. My thoughts on it is that it offers a simple to set up and use forum solution in the most basic sense. It will not work for people looking for a feature rich platform, but if you have a WP site and have no money it will be a viable option.Tried BBPress as well, more than once. My view, don't waste your time on it.
My overall point about bbpress in context to this thread is that it will certainly increase the number of forums out there.
