Yahoo groups being shut down

2019-10-18 by <backshall1@...>

Mike, with Yahoo groups going away real soon, a lot of other groups are proposing to move to Groups.io. Unfortunately, without migration tools from Yahoo Groups and a 1GB total files and messages limit, the free version just doesn't cut it. There is some talk of combining Monopoly and Polysix groups under one paid subscription ($110 per year) with separate subgroups. They say subgroups work well on Groups.io. Kogpolyex is a fairly active group with over 1300 members and we could cover the cost of the paid plan (10G limit, with migration tools) for less than a dollar each per year, or maybe combine with the other groups and form a new subgroup? One way or another, we need to save the archives and keep this group going! Any other ideas come to mind? Another possibility is a paid plan for one year so the migration tools are available, then revert to the free version if the 1GB data limit is sufficient.
