I’m looking for a platform that I can use to power a Q&A section of a website. I’m already planning on using Discourse for comments throughout the site but I’ve also read on Quora ([http://www.quora.com/Is-there-any-open-source-question-and-answer-web-platform-like-Stack-Overflow](http://www.quora.com/Is-there-any-open-source-question-and-answer-web-platform-like-Stack-Overflow)) that Discourse can also be used to run a Q&A section. However I haven’t been able to find any examples. Is this correct or am I mistaken? Here’s the quote:

> With the functionality like Voting and advanced tagging, it can be used as question-and-answers platform. Every feature that Stack Overflow introduced is available with Discourse to run a Question & Answers site.
