phpBB can be modified to work like this, using it I've done the second
two before and I've seen the first done. The difference is I made it
create topics automatically when the content is submitted, which isn't
what your description looks like (I'm not sure what you're saying
toward the end of that list item). There must be a pre-made
modification to some forum software, maybe phpBB has one, that covers
everything you're asking for without doing any programming work. They
don't use the SEO thing by default for performance (can't just create
tens of thousands of files) and portability (automatically rewriting
the URL would not be the same on UNIX and Windows) reasons, but it's
fine to add it yourself.
