Ideatorrent open source alternative

Question

Are there any open source not drupal bundeled alternatives to the not very active Ideatorrent project?

I would also love to know the answer to this. – Sherri Dec 14 '09 at 20:24 — Sherri, Dec 14 '09 at 20:24

Pligg is the only one which seems to have some voting features like IdeaTorrent although it looks to be more focussed on voting for stories than voting for ideas.

Perhaps a Pligg user can comment on its suitability as a replacement for IdeaTorrent?

How about BBYIDX, the tool behind Best Buy IdeaX that has been open sourced.

OpenideaL, also a drupal based product, does exactly that: https://drupal.org/project/idea

The last OpenieaL version is only from two months ago, not from 2011. It dates to May 14th 2014. – zstolar Jul 14 '14 at 07:01
FYI - A new release of OpenideaL is now available on https://drupal.org/project/idea – zstolar Oct 24 '17 at 14:09

I was thinking that if you added 'voting' to the open source KB software 68KB (http://68kb.com/) then you could use votes to add 'weight' to the KB articles and that would have the same effect.

KB articles would be 'ideas', and users can add comments and vote.
