Where will the members exchange and downloads end up? Will they be incorporated in this new forum?

In this new forum software, it appears that you will be able to just upload a file in a forum post and a registered forum user will be able to download the file right from the post.
I know that makes the downloads harder to find if you were not the intended person that the initial post was intended for, but if the person posting the item adds the appropriate "tags" to the item, you should be able to do a search for the items with a better search result than the previous user forum.
Maybe SoftPlan Admin will create a separate forum for "downloads" so a search can be limited to that forum only, which would increase the search results findings.
CORRECTION - I tried to upload a SoftPlan symbol file .spy and it gave me an error message that says "you aren't permitted to upload this kind of file"
I guess SoftPlan Admin will have to allow that type of file before this method would work.

That works if you can remember your gallery login details! Good job I still have an e-mail with them on, because my memory is appalling ...
Thanks for the link, Tommy.

I'd still like someone to confirm how (and where) that we upload our wonderful creations that we think will benefit other Softplan users. Being able to add them to posts would be good, but a dedicated sub-forum would be better - especially if the search options work well.
