What's your opinion on XenForo? It's currently in alpha, http://xenforo.com/community/ is running the latest build.

I'd stuck to one of the better know forum software's, the community only seems slightly more active than this one, but for good FOSS software you need thriving community.

Also, what is really wrong with the forum we have at the moment? It works and we are all used to it.

Personally I think that SMF is best.
