Re: [disklavier] New Google Group has been set up.

2007-03-22 by Todd Muncy

Let's see what happens when the bulk of the invitations hit in a few days.  I put out about 140 invites in small bunches that did not require moderating and about a third of them have accepted in the first 12 hours.  

The easiest way to make the break will be to use the old email platform to keep telling people it's been declared obsolete and to move to the new one, once it has taken root.

Carl, do you want to be set up as a second manager of the group so you can manage the file vault, issue invites, approve membership requests, etc.?  Anyone else interested as well?

  I think you also have the option of doing bulk adds for members who don't want to receive emails.  I would suggest you sort the list by the various members' email preferences and add everyone to the new group.  My biggest concern is that if you fracture the community and we have half of the members subscribed to one group and the other half subscribed to the other, then I won't be sure that my comments and questions are reaching everyone, and I will be obliged to send a message to both groups and also probably provoke a lot of confusion as various members from each group reply.  I think it would be better to make a clean break of it and standardize on one platform or the other.
