Well, either my knowledge of FUDforum is lacking (very likely) or what it lacks is a way to create and manage the typical blog home page. You need a process for accepting article submissions, approving them, posting them to the TOC (table of contents page), arranging the summaries in a TOC, a printer-friendly feature for the page, shuffling the articles in the TOC as necessary, etc. And the tables that store and track articles contain information that isn't normally stored in the FUD tables -- at least some of the fields I would want are missing.
FUDforum has many of the features that IMO, would be very useful but are missing in most blogs today, including the great message formatting, a means to view the TOC and immediately know if someone commented on a story since you last visited, and so on.
By the way, I wrote an updated article for LinuxWorld on FUDforum recently, so you may want to check them out and let me know what I got wrong (or right). Thanks.
