We're looking for a place our partners can collaborate on questions/answers about our platform. We're thinking of going with Confluence Questions for now. I would love to have a higher quality portal along the lines of Stack Overflow. Something like Rocket.Chat on Meteor that deploys to Heroku. Perhaps something really nice that already exists on Meteor could be tailored for questions/answers. Any ideas?
Have you considered Discourse? It isn't a true Q/A platform like Stack Overflow or Quora, but if you treat the initial post a question and the replies as answers it works. Also, this guy claims to have written a plugin that gives it Q/A functionality:

I don't know too much about it, but Question2Answer is an open source project that is basically what you're asking for. I don't think it fits the "really nice" part though.<p><a href="http://www.question2answer.org" rel="nofollow">http://www.question2answer.org</a>
