I agree to Romain's comment.

To Marja's question:
Capabilities needed:
Well, one could say that anybody who 
 - knows how to run phpBB as admin and 
 - has seen a line of php
 - knows how to edit code (respecting tags and such)
 - knows how to cut&paste
should be able to install an existing MOD (if I'm not mistaken there is one or
more).

I know next to nothing about php coding. But I've been running a phpBB forum
for a couple of years and successfully implemented some MODs in phpBB2 and
phpBB3. With no help (except the phpBB-forum in case of problems).

In practice you have a detailed installation README for each MOD. Like
 - open file /foo/bar/doo.php
 - Find the line which starts with '......'
 - After that add
 - "........."
And more such step-by-step guidance

It's easy most times but getting tricky the more the installed phpBB3 differs
from the standard software.

Implementing a MOD which does not already exist (aka writing a MOD) is a whole
different story, of course. So the first step should be searching an existing
MOD with the wanted functionality.
