I wish to prototype a community-driven Q&#38;A site and explore its viability before committing serious development effort into it. However, existing pricing for StackExchange ($160/month) is little too high for me plus the data ownership issues are of concern. Any ideas (or open source suggestions) on how to go about piloting such a website? I have already explored Stackoverflow clones (such as CNProg/Qwench) but those seem a bit limiting to me (in one way or the other). Thanks for your help.
