forum in rails 4.2.3 - forum

Can someone please tell me best way for developing forum, so that I can integrate it in my rails project.
Note:- For rails- 4.2.3
I have already tried forem and thredded, but they seem outdated or not well maintained(developed).

Yes people these days are developing forum using other tools. If you still want to built forum in rails you can refer http://www.sitepoint.com/forem-rails-forum-engine/
Hope this will work for you

forem ( github.com/radar/forem ) does not work after rails 4.2. You can use https://mackenziechild.me/video/how-to-build-a-forum-with-rails-4/ if you want to make it from scratch.

Thredded is a great forum engine, is actively developed, and is easy to integrate into any Rails app:

Does node js have a good library for speech-to-text?

Im working on a project in which the main feature of the project is voice recognition. Th e backend is developed in node, express, and mongo DB, and the frontend is in react-native. I have made a lot of research and tried a lot of examples trying to implement this feature in my application, but I couldn't find any.
I started looking for react-native libraries that might cover this feature, and I did find https://github.com/react-native-voice/voice
I tried to implement it in my project, but I got stuck with an error which is an open issue: https://github.com/react-native-voice/voice/issues/376
I also tried to find other libraries but they weren't good ones. Most of them were developed years ago and never updated.
So I thought to solve this feature in the backend.
I made a lot of research as well, and find a few libraries for speech-to-text, but their documentation wasn't enough, very few tutorials, and not a strong source code to support this feature.
So by far, I am to the conclusion that Node.js and React-native cannot support this feature.
The reason I choose to ask in StackOverflow is to make sure if my conclusion is right(to not waste time trying other libraries), and if it is right, should I try to implement these features by using another programming language(ex: Python), and if my conclusion is wrong, please feel free to share any documentation or solution about this feature.

jsf4birt: Is exadel.org dead?

I want to test jsf4birt in my web application. The tutorial at the actuate website tells me to download the jsf4birt Library at exadel.org but exadel.org is not available at all.
Does anyone know, if the jsf4birt project is continued in any way - and where - or is the project not supported anymore?
Cheers, Chris
Last working archive of their website dates back to 2014-03-26. Either way, seems like jsf4birt only supported up to JSF 1.2. Project seems to be discontinued.

Creating an OAuth2.0 service provider using RESTify Node.js

I have a restful API that I built using node.js and node-restify. I am up to the part where I have to secure it. Apparently, it is easy to find out how to use OAuth 2.0 as a client but hard to find out how to set up a provider. I guess my google skills aren't as good as they used to be.
Can someone point me in the direction of where to start? Is there a basic OAuth 2.0 server provider library for node?
I don't have a problem with creating my own library if need be but I looked at the spec, and being that it is a spec, it seems overly complicated. I would think that there would be some sort of tutorial, webcast, or "hello World" style project that broke it down for the dummy in me.
Thanks for your thoughts.
After some heavy googling, I came up with a lead. I spoke with a kindhearted genius who began work on such a project. He decided to finish up his code and to release it to the world.
The package is called restify-OAuth2.
Here is a link to the package. Here is the link to the github page.
Thanks for all your help Domenic.

Does anyone know of a feature filled forum package for Umbraco 4.03?

I was wondering if anyone has built or know of a decent forum package for Umbraco 4.03??
I've had a little play with this but its a bit basic
http://our.umbraco.org/projects/umbraco-forum-package
and
http://our.umbraco.org/projects/uforum-basics
I've found this article on how to integrate YAF forum but would rather have one which fits a bit better..
http://dawoe.blogspot.com/2009/02/intergrate-yet-another-forum-193rc2.html
Of course I know one answer, write or extend one of the above :) Any help would be gratefully received.
uForum is used to power the Our Umbraco community - so that's the current recommended forum package.
YAF is a fully-featured forum/bulletin-board web-application, which can be integrated with Umbraco (using an ASP.NET Membership Provider). Aside from that YAF is standalone.
Update: There is a new package called nForum.
I guess it depends on your requirements.
What features are lacking, clearly you know what you want so any guidance on what the forum should include will help.
Pretty much any asp.net based forum software would work with Umbraco. I guess the main thing would be the integration with the Membership provider in Umbraco. In this case Any forum software that could use a custom ASP.NET membership provider would integrate pretty much seamlessly.
There are plenty of opensource and commercial forum packages available for ASP.NET, just find one that matches your requirements and look at integrating it or running it alongside Umbraco.

How to quickly learn Python and Ruby frameworks coming from a PHP background

I've been using CakaPHP and Kohanaphp but now I want to try out other frameworks from a more sophisticated OOP language for my next projects.
How can I learn the following frameworks quickly so I can immediately pick what to use:
Pylons
Sinatra
Ramaze
Tutorials and examples from online resources would really be great.
For php developers who've already underwent this learning experience, please share yours.
Thanks
Regarding Pylons. There is a good introductory book written by one of the creators of Pylons. It is freely available online at http://pylonsbook.com/
For Ramaze, see:
the website
the wiki
the book
the mailing list
the IRC channel
You can also learn about setting up Sinatra with Google's App Engine (via jRuby) here: http://code.google.com/p/appengine-jruby/
Fairly quick and easy setup.
There's also this screencast at PeepCode https://peepcode.com/products/sinatra
