title: How do I create a custom list definition based on a Discussion Board?
body: <p>I've been trying to create a list definition based on the SharePoint Discussion Board in SharePoint 2010, but obviously not successful. I should note that I want to put this list definition in a Visual Studio 2010 SharePoint project.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried to save an existing list as a template, but didn't find any way to import that into the Visual Studio project.</p>
  
  <p>I've tried to just create a list definition in Visual Studio using the new wizards/designers for SharePoint 2010, but it doesn't allow me to base my list on a Discussion Board.</p>
  
  <p>I've also tried to create a custom Content Type based on a Discussion Board and then create a list definition from that Content Type, but the end result when I deploy it is a list that is a Custom List and not a Discussion Board.</p>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated.</p>
