This is good to hear. 

Any plans to relase this integration to Open Source?

Well most users (including me) would want a fully integrated solution with
only one user database. What user database to use is the key question. Do
you know if mvmForum offers some kind of API/Interface mechanism to "plug
in" other user DBs? If so, it should not be difficult to replace mvmForum
users with OpenCms users.
