1. User's can login or create account
- properties include id, first, last, email, zip, date created, customerProperty1, customerProperty2
2. Users can create messages (just HTML text) on the system in one of 16 cateogries ("Business", "Graphics", "Email",ie)
3. Messages the following properites: id, title (name), description, user (publishing the message), rating (1 to 5), contents (text), categoryID (point to category)
4. Categories has the following properites: id, name, description, number of messages in the category

5. Everone on the system can see the messages and navigate the categories
6. Registered users can rate messages an a scale to 1 to 5

I don't know if you're likely to find a general project like this for free since its a common comercial application. One of the reasons there isn't much general work like this is often the specific needs of users/administrators are far more complicated and detailed than could ever be achieved by a general application.

For general forum software though, phpBB is a good choice although I don't think its what you're really looking for.
