The code has always been public, but it relies on features only implemented in 's current fork of MediaWiki, and the current fork relies on several external services, so I doubt it would be of much use to you.

Also, could you give me an example of them or a wiki that uses them? DPL forums are explained on their help page, and a setup guide is also provided. If you need an example, see Forum:Index here on or the one on Wookieepedia. I got DPL forums enabled alongside regular Forum/Discussions before on a test wiki, so I'm pretty sure you can just contact Staff to unlock the Forum namespace for you to set them up.
