Seems no one has made any real serious attempt to really modernize them.
I'm not sure of what you're imaging but 2 recent new sites somewhat related are: http://www.branch.com/ http://www.pivory.com/
branch is definitely a good one but it's really a different product and market. it's not forums and not really a commenting system for your site also.
and we don't take pivory very seriously

IMHO pivory is hideous (different strokes) and still feels too bound by trying to simply make old forums "cool". Seems that commenting and forums line really should be more blurred. I know some people really like pivory but I'm not sure it's really a contendor for a serious forum replacement for a real site. At least in my view.
branch on the other hand is really quite unique. I think however it's more of a commenting platform or something for closed discussions, maybe for some kind of collaborative solution even.. rather than a forum replacement.

Doesn't look like it, but quite a silly name choice for a product around online discussions.
"Moot" is an Old English word for a meeting, which I believe is still in modern usage. I've heard it used at any rate. So not that bad a name really.

it's also slang for ladybits in some areas. Humorous.
The concept of internet forums has mostly been gathering dust for the past ten years while the ways people discuss over the internet have changed profoundly, so some re-imagining is definitely in order.
How SEO friendly is this? I know that some more popular systems provide a regular dump of static content that you can embed yourself.
There are two ways to implement this and we'll study these under flowplayer.org site. And on server it's definitely a static dump every day.

Not really. You are just looking at the top, progressive layer of the web. There are still tons of niche forums using old software like vBulletin but with lots of traffic. Anything from car enthusiast sites to bodybuilding.
