The *best* solution to my mind would be a
combination forum and Wiki where certain subject threads get condensed
and transferred to the semi-permanent Wiki, a continually expanding
body of knowledge that is often more easily searched and scanned than
mailing list archives.
Now here's a suggestion! Wikis are ideally suited to a community such as Stata users, whose accumulated expertise could be brought to bear in a format that would allow collaboration, updating and organisation.

As an occasional Wikipedian, I can vouch for the ease with which users can learn to contribute, and the value of a medium which allows you to have both the current page and the underlying discussion between the contributors visible.
