They must be using VBulletin, which I hear is a pretty flexible package and offers both a commercial package and a free package. Don't know if it could be linked to a News server (given RSS support I would assume it is possible?) and be used only as a CMS backend and could be used for storing, classifying, web-frontend, etc of the main discussion. I mean the ideal package would be one that could provide both sides the same. So if you posted from your mail/news client, guys browsing the Web interface will see your posts threaded and all that, and vice versa.
Well.. actually I wouldn't say "must".
This is especially so considering that their NNTP server is the primary source, and that their system was up years before RSS came round (and before "CMS" was used as a buzzword for web content).
Hmmm... looking around it seems to be something the POV-Ray team put together themselves.
