Great post nnako.
Greg, why not look at one of Nabble's competitor Lefora.
Here is a link to their Help page makes Nabble's non effort look less than impressive.
http://support.lefora.com/support/homeI think the problem with Nabble generally is that it is run by programmers who want to enjoy what they do and don't want to do the tedious stuff that is required to create a professional product.
There is heaps of work going into the back end and virtually none into the front end. Look at the New Post Entry box. It hasn't changed in years. Surely we could have a series of drop downs so you could quickly insert html tags link <p> etc. Basic stuff that never gets done.
Look at the example forums, virtually no NAML anywhere. At a guess the vast majority of users wouldn't have a clue about using NAML yet much effort goes into it while the interface remains virtually stagnant.
I know i'm being super critical here but I think it needs to be said. Maybe someone will take notice.
