[TYPO3] Connection with forums

[Amir M.]

Hey,

For my website, I currently run a growing community using Invision Power 
Board as the software.  As I am about to release the site, I am finding 
that it would be very convenient if Typo3 and IPB can be somehow linked 
- especially for news.

For example, maybe it is possible for that when news is posted using 
ttnews on the Typo3 backend, a thread is automatically created in the 
IPB forum (and a link in the news pointing to that thread)?

This would be very convenient.  Is there such an extension?  If not, how 
hard would it be to create one?
