All members of the Yahoo group were given
membership in the Google group many weeks ago, but the default is no email so
most may still be unaware. Then again, "no email" is the most common
option on the Yahoo group. Despite my appeals for someone to help me out
by transferring the file vault contents over, no one has stepped up, making the
Google group much less attractive.
I am extremely hesitant to take any action
to obsolete the Yahoo group due to the lack of awareness about the change.
In fact, as we were setting up the Google alternative, Yahoo matched Google by
expanding the file storage from 20mb to 100mb, reducing the motivation for a
change.
I'm more than open to
suggestions.
