I have been doing Java programming for a long time and I really wanted to use a slashdot-like open source package for my website http://www.mathpotd.org/ (Math Problem of the Day). A Java expert Dennis Sosnoski (http://www.sosnoski.com) thought I needed a forum-like package and initially recommended me Java Forum (http://www.jforum.net). Jforum is a very good package, but it is only for creating forums. Any Java expert here can recommend a slash-dot like Java open source package?
By the way, I currently use Drupal (http://www.drupal.org) in PHP, it seems it is quite good for my purpose. The drawback for me to use Drupal is I'm very new to PHP.
Look at their Microsoft Office Live Basics. It is much worse than many small free open source packages. They depend on they can give every thing free (for a short time): domain names, hostings, etc. I initially wanted to use it for www.mathpotd.org (Math Problem of the Day) and I found I couldn't do anything with it. Now you see www.mathpotd.com is being redirected to www.mathpotd.org -- even the redirection cannot be done nicely -- very ugly.
A system error caused the problem. It didn't insist it be 1/3 -- it was because choice B (which didn't correspond to any choice) was given as the correct answer. The website support has corrected the problem.
I asked some math website to put a link to http://www.mathpotd.org/ Math Problem of the Day -- they don't bother to do so. They know the math and use it.
Why don't look at Apache's jackrabbit ( http://jackrabbit.apache.com/ )? Afresco costs money and it does necessarily any better than Jackrabbit on what you needs. You may also find http://jackrabbit.elookinto.com/ useful.
Only people who never did any serious IT projects would say something like this.

If I listed this problem on my http://www.mathpotd.org/ (Math Problem of the Day), should it go to K1-2?

Use both and pick up whatever you feel convenient at the time you use it -- a freelander.
That just makes things too hard.
