E-mails wouldn't go away with a discussion forum as they have e-mail notifications too....it could compliment this mailing list... some stuff is asked over and over and over ... isn't it? With a forum, it would be possible to say.. go see this post.. .or that thread.. etc...
Multi-core could use it's own Topic Scalling could use it's own too Indexing Optimizing Indexes etc... Surely some general topics would help organize this evolving body of knowledge... IMO.. Folks that have graduated the entry levels of setting up Solr could choose to subscribe to more advanced topics, this coud help spare some mental bandwidth for some... on the flip this, novice developers might feel overwhelmed and shy away from participating much in this mailing list.. a forum might help strike a better balance of capturing static information, reduce the volume of e-mails, prevent users from having to setup fitlers to deal with the solr mailing list, all without taking away from the e-mail discussions..
