I am going to integrate forum with my WP MU (for support, etc.). I want forum like here, or here. Does this happen only with bbPress? If so, I have to just install bbPress plugin or what?

Yep. We use bbPress here. The new plugin version looks incredible. I'm really excited by it.
The old version required a stand-alone install and could be a bit of a pain to set up and integrate with WordPress. The new one's really great although you'll need a kickin' theme to go with it :)
One point of clarification - we are actually still using the old standalone version. The new one will require us to create a whole new theme for it and we haven't got that far (yet).
I've personally used the bbPress plugin though and find it pretty good in it's current state, but we don't use it here.

I recommend checking it out though:

Hi,
Yes, that's what I remember about old bb-press painfully, I am really glad that new version does it automatically!
So if you are using this, beta version it means that it works excellent.
Thank you!

Sorry if I misled. Thanks!

Hiya,
No problem. I'm using the latest 'stable' release: 2.0-beta-3b
