How was FedoraForum site built ? Packages ?

This is a great site !

How was it built? From scratch or is a customization of a CMS package such as phpNuke, etc... ?

Thanks and great job !

it is based on comercial semi-open (I don't find it political polite but at least it works...) Forum/CMS system - free equivalents of this are phpBB and Gallery... system underneath is FC1...

and as for customisation you got it all wrong. main aspect of CMS systems is that the presentation (what you see) layer is separated from logic layer (what you don't see, well you see it when posting a post and then it magically shows up) - so for perfect setup you get opensource CMS and not change it you just congfigure it to meet your need and set up visualisation layer/logic (here you can do what you wan't since you can't break system logic with it) to be eyecandy... :]
