Jiri,
1st. there is no need to insult people who try to help. 2nd, I wrote the forum software after looking at many to install. We did not want anything complex. We do not need multiple forums. We wanted things to be integrated, for example the user accounts on the wiki and forum, the formatting on the wiki and forum, links mentioned in the wiki linking to the forum and the other way around, etc...
You are not hurting anyone's feelings. The forum is a work in progress. Search was added, as Jim has said, but there has been an internal problem that has not yet been sorted out. Further, when search is online, it will search the forum, the manual and the wiki. Something we couldn't do (to my knowledge) with other canned forum software.
What would you suggest? As I said previously, we are few in developers and would appriciate more help.

Sorry, Jeremy, I did not want to insult you - how could I guess you were trying to compile a vital piece of software with an alpha version of the compiler? Why don't you use the stable 3.1.1 version until you get the bugs out? The lack of the search facility is, I suspect, a big turn-off for both newcomers as well as the people who are returning, hoping to see a bit of progress. jiri
