much of adams street shul's site --- including fireboard-based forums iddeim private messaging , cb integration, docman document distribution (such meeting minutes), easyfaq system, fun stuff on community builder tabs, sms text messaging (with subscriptions various classes of sms notices controlled users via cb fields), etc. ---  in members-only portion of site.  there's still plenty of public stuff browse.
