can't find the original message from Kevin so replying here.
How did you get all the messages from the groups? I am trying to use PG offline 4 to do so with another group and the process is taking forever and crashes often. I have about 130000 of 150000 messages downloaded and am getting all sorts of download errors. I am at a hotel using their wifi and it may not be a great connection. so far it has taken something like 15 hours of intermittent downloading?

Pianoworld uses a platform called UBB, a commercial platform. There are other platforms that are free, open source. Many BBs platforms are run on one of these.
Here is a comparison of UBB with other platforms:

phpBB is the mostly used, popular and relatively easy to set up. Here is their homepage:

I am offering to help with the installation and setup if others are interested. I have extensive experience (almost 15 years) with the platforms (LAMP stack) required for this software.
