 This ticket should be deprecated in favor of more specific tickets when
 the time comes; consider this a placeholder for our roadmap.

 A straightfoward port would require:
 - Replacing all calls to BB_Query with corresponding calls to bbPress 2.0
 API
 - Replacing all calls to bbPress 1.0 template functions (like the tag
 cloud stuff) with corresponding WP-only functions
 - Deprecating the BPDB class and the other machinery intended to integrate
 bbPress 1.0 databases with the WP database

 We may also talk about the possibility of rethinking the necessity of the
 connections between forums and groups, and what ramifications it has for
 UI, etc.
