JForum (also known as JForum2) is a powerful forum software built as a Java web app. It is localized in numerous languages, and only needs a Servlet 3.1 compatible servlet container running on Java 8, and one of a variety of databases to run on. It is open source licensed under the BSD, and lives on SourceForge.
