In addition to enhancing the comment system, Discourse integration would serve as a sort of relay between ZF Grants and the Discourse forum. ZF Grants related discussion would automatically have threads spawned on the forum. Given that the forum experiences a significant amount of community discussion, this integration could serve to facilitate greater discussion and community interest on proposals being issued on ZF Grants.
Discourse, which powers the Zcash discussion forum, offers a full-featured interface and serves as a hub for communication across the Zcash community.
@tromer recently brought it to my attention that Discourse supports a Javascript + IFRAME based integration that allows external sites to embed threads into their site. See https://meta.discourse.org/t/embedding-discourse-comments-via-javascript/31963.
