  Finally, you can do:
  - Download last version
  - Open version.php
  - Change your version
  $module->requires = 2007101550;
  $module->requires = 2007101530; (for example, for 1.9.3)
  Works OK

  Has anyone else found that ForumNG is not working correctly under Moodle 2.4? For example, you can post a new discussion, but cannot reply because the Reply link is Javascript driven and wants the old YAHOO object, such that hitting Reply produces this error:
  SCRIPT5009: 'YAHOO' is undefined
  javascript.php?rev=1363703256&jsfile=%2Fmod%2Fforumng%2Fmodule.js, line 1 character 12916
  
  ForumNG is very attractive to our faculty, but obviously of no use to us unless this can be fixed. I have just downloaded the very latest version from this page, and the problem is still there, so I'm hoping this can be addressed soon.

  Tony, the version on this site is for 2.3 only - the 2.4 version has yet to be released here.
  
  The latest 'master' code does work on 2.4, but is not yet at release stage (has yet to be fully tested, use at own risk etc). You can get this from the GitHub repository https://github.com/moodleou/moodle-mod_forumng.

  I am very keen on ForumNG for use by our program at UNSW. I also have some ideas for its improvement. How would I have input into the feature set for the core version for 2.4/2.5 or be involved in its testing?

  Thanks Andrew. The best way to handle this is probably via GitHub as you could raise issue there and we could treat them as feature requests. If your ideas are less tangible then it might be best to message me with the details and we can work out a route forward. We have a loose 'roadmap' of forumng feature development, so improvements could be added to that for future releases.
  
  I can't promise that we will undertake the development of any functionality requested - I suspect it would only happen if it's something very quick to implement or we feel is of value here also. Of course, if you were able to undertake developments yourself (or find someone that is willing to) then we will always consider integrating code that adds extra functionality or fixes bugs (as long as it is acceptable both it terms of its function and quality).

  Diego, Sorry for the delay, hopefully you have found that the module is added to your course in the usual way.
  I have confirmed that for myself, turning on editing and finding the ForumNg in the list of modules after clicking on Add an activity or resource.
  ForumNg operation is very similar to the original forum, its probably best to explore the options available.

  I've just installed it on 2.5. I had no problem connecting the activity to a block but then I got several error messages while clicking different options. The Moodle auto fixed them so only 1 error per button. Weird.
  
  Anyway - now I have a forum but I don't have a button for adding a new post. Idea?

  There are a number of minor issues with forumng running on 2.5+ so it is not recommended to use it in these versions at present. These issue will be addressed over the next few weeks as we have only just switched to 2.5.1 code base at the OU. The working code will then be available in the github repository (master branch) prior to the 'official' 2.5 version release in December.
  
  Any issues spotted can be raised in the github project - this is especially useful if you spotted an issue that isn't so obvious e.g. a warning on a page buried behind a lot of options.

  Hello,
  I wanted to contribute some adjustments to the French translation for forumng. Apparently it is not possible to use AMOS to do so, because forumng is not in the component list.

  Thanks Jean-Michel, you can do so just by submitting updates in the code via the forumng github project. Hopefully the AMOS support will start working with the next published release (in 3 weeks time).
  
  If you do make changes please can you briefly outline the reason for the changes where practical in the issue; this is because my French isn't great, so I just need to be sure that your changes are OK (and not because you use different terminology in your institution or something).

  Hello Jason,
  No I didn't make any specific change, and I think my changes are suitable for everyone. Here is a summary of what I did:
  
  - added missing files and strings
  - corrected a few typos
  - corrected a few strings where the placeholders were incorrect
  - used UTF-8 characters rather than entities for accented characters
  
  tthe change are on my gihub account https://github.com/jmvedrine/moodle-mod_forumng in the french branch.
  I will create a pull request as soon as I learn how to do it
