Yahoo Groups Shutdown Reminder

Yahoo Groups Shutdown Reminder

2002-03-15 by mwesley3

Just at reminder that Yahoo will be closing down all of the Yahoo 
Groups at 9:00 PM PST tonight and they do not plan to be back up 
until Sunday. So if you have any burning questions that need fast 
answers, post them now.

Once Yahoo is done with repairs expect large and erratic delays in 
your posts. I suspect that Monday and perhaps Tuesday will be slow.

The text of the Yahoo notice is below.

The Yahoo! Groups service will be down for scheduled maintenance
Friday, March 15, 9:00 PM PST (GMT-8) as we move our servers to a new
facility. We expect the service to be restored the morning of Sunday
March 17.

During this time the web site will be unavailable and email will not
be delivered. (Some users may experience email non-delivery notices 
while the service is down, but all email should be delivered once 
service is resumed.) Please note: once the service is restored, there
will be email delays due to backlog. We expect these delays to last
no longer than 1 day. Please do not re-send email to your group as
this will only add to delays.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

I suppose they are making room for bigger and better ads?

 Todd,

I can't imagine what would make you think such cynical thoughts! <G>
