We have an internal instance, and I've had good (but limited) experience
with it.

Editing works well, quoting previous post and inserting responses inline
works well.
There are categories to organise posts into, setup for admins I believe.
Editing is quite similar to StackOverflow, but given Jeff Atwood's
involvement that's hardly surprising.
Some gamification with badges and stuff, like SO again. Email notifications
possible. But AFAIK, no
possibility to reply by email...

Still, I like MLs best... If the only issue is the subscription part, lets
fix that only?

Last discussion/thread on moving away from MLs on the SQLite list showed a
clear bias
against using a forum over a ML IMHO, especially from long time
contributors. My $0.02... --DD
