So I've done some more digging around, and we have a couple options. 
First, we build a blog in something like drupal, wordpress, and etc. 
Then we set up something so that a blog post also gets mailed to a 
group. The other way around is a little more tricky. That requires 
hooking a program into a mail server that can add the mail to the blog. 
Also, apparently there is a way to set up drupal on sourceforge, 
although I haven't tried that yet.

Another option would be to use a blogging host like www.blogger.com so 
we don't have to do server maintenance. blogger.com has a feature to do 
mailing list cc'ing, but not automatic mailing list - to - blog. It does 
support manually mailing the blog a story though. blogger would restrict 
the website some if we wanted to do something a bit more complicated though.

We could also use a different mailing list host, such as 
groups.google.com. This would let us have an excellent web-based group 
communication that would also allow for email communication.

Finally, we could also migrate off of sourceforge and on to 
code.google.com. While it may not be as full featured as sourceforge, it 
has a very simple UI. Furthermore, it seems to be in active feature 
development (as opposed to sourceforge), and the development team 
appears to be very responsive.

For an example of all this put together:

http://code.google.com/p/google-web-toolkit/

Now, I'm not saying that we use code.google.com, there's a couple things 
against it. First, the website isn't that customizable. The main 
extension mechanism is via a wiki. Second, it's very developer-oriented. 
It may be pretty challenging to recreate a website like python.org in it.

What do you guys think?
