What software do I have and is it installed !!

OK that sounds like a stupid question I know. I have taken on responsibility for a Joomla site and in the folder above the joomla root folder there is a global.php file containing
<?php
/**
* @author Marcel Werk
* @copyright 2001-2007 WoltLab GmbH
* @license WoltLab Burning Board License <http://www.woltlab.com/products/burning_board/license.php>
*/
// include config
$packageDirs = array();
require_once(dirname(__FILE__).'/config.inc.php');

// include WCF
require_once(RELATIVE_WCF_DIR.'global.php');
if (!count($packageDirs)) $packageDirs[] = WBB_DIR;
$packageDirs[] = WCF_DIR;

// starting wbb core
require_once(WBB_DIR.'lib/system/WBBCore.class.php');
new WBBCore();
?>
a config file containing this
<?php
// com.woltlab.wbb vars
// wbb
if (!defined('WBB_DIR')) define('WBB_DIR', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
if (!defined('RELATIVE_WBB_DIR')) define('RELATIVE_WBB_DIR', '');
if (!defined('WBB_N')) define('WBB_N', '1_1');
$packageDirs[] = WBB_DIR;

// general info
if (!defined('RELATIVE_WCF_DIR')) define('RELATIVE_WCF_DIR', RELATIVE_WBB_DIR.'wbb/');
if (!defined('PACKAGE_ID')) define('PACKAGE_ID', 24);
if (!defined('PACKAGE_NAME')) define('PACKAGE_NAME', 'WoltLab Burning Board Lite');
if (!defined('PACKAGE_VERSION')) define('PACKAGE_VERSION', '2.0.1');
?>
There is a folder labelled phptemp the files of which contain lots references to Woltlabs.

However I can see no obvious reference to bulletin board functionality in the Joomla set up.

So how can I tell exactly what it is, if it is installed and what it might be called if it is?.
Thanks.

If it is fully operational, it seems to be WoltLab Burning Board Lite 2.0.1, but there should be more files and folders than phptemp.

Thanks for the quick reply.
Is there any typical database name, field or directory I could look for, or what would it likely say in the Joomla Extensions list?

There is no Joomla extension, at least not that I know. It is a completely independent software package.
Just open the folder containing index.php in your browser. You should see a forum.
