   Unless your "community" is willing to consistently use a     
   desktop or a laptop for comms, I doubt that usage would be a     
   success.   
      
   Today, the primary tool to communicate are smartphones.     
   Personally, I think Briar or Simplex would be a more practical     
   solution for a community "board".  With a consistent naming     
   approach, the message areas can be set up to look like part of     
   a unified "bbs".   
      
   The one cool feature with Briar is that it can utilize BT     
   netwworking, or Wi-fi, or the internet for broadcasting     
   messages to member devices.
