We still get user questions on Launchpad and questions have started to
appear on the new mailing list.

I suggest we try to move the user questions (or a subset of them) to
stackexchange as quickly as possible.

We need to write a short list of instructions for what kinds of
questions and discussion should go to which place.

Here's a starting point:

(1) scicomp.stackexchange: user questions

- user question: how do I do <foo> in FEniCS?
- user question: what is a stable method for <foo> (in FEniCS)?

A plea from a user: please set up a mailing list for this,
don't use stackexchange or any other type of forum.
A mailing list can be searched and indexed just like a forum;
as a bonus point you can save the (threaded) discussion that most interest you in your hd.
And if you want to change your server
you can do it without losing all the past discussions.
