Any suggestions how to resolve at least some of these shortcomings would be greatly appreciated.

I did this on a test setup here: http://forum2.blogdot.de/ This Upgrade worked easy and flawless even with my custom theme. Finally the same 'forum-db' imported into a newly setup WordPress 3.2.1 with the bbpress 2.0 plugin to see here: http://forum.blogdot.de/ That result is still not satisfying, even with some imports into a fresh Wordpress it calculates the freshness wrong and shows all spam and deleted topics which I didn't want to see ever again. And coming to permalinks I would like to keep - there is still some work to do before I will switch my original go41 forum Adding a totally new forum to an existing site might work well, but switching a running forum takes a lot of thinking and no documentation.

Is there a URL to view? Regarding the forum view, going with the basic questions, are there active forums? Do those forums have posts? It’s tough to diagnose the issue from that point.

Huge props to JJ and the team behind it. I have learned more reading through this plugin than just about anything else out there. Talk about coding standards.. WOW, this is nice!
