All,

As you may know Yahoo! Groups and the existing Q-list will be going away very soon. Current Q-list moderator Paul Fisher and I had a conference and decided that https://groups.io/  is the way of our future.  You don’t have to follow us, but this is what we are setting up.  We looked at Google Groups, but they do not transfer photos, files, or conversations, so all history would be lost.  Also, it looks like that someone would have to cut and paste email addresses to move all the members. Please look at some of the advantages that Groups.io has over Yahoo: https://groups.io/static/transfer.  Thank you everyone for your input.

Groups.io seems to have all the bases covered. (The owner came from Yahoo). We have grabbed the Q-List name and we have done a couple of test messages and all seems well. You will not have to create a new ID, like Yahoo required.

Groups.io is requiring that we purchase a Premium, one year membership for $110, if we want them to handle all the transfer legwork. I paid that today and will accept small donations to offset, but it’s not necessary.  More about that in a future email.

After our first year, as long as our stored content is less than 1 GB, the group will be free.  Right now, on Yahoo, we have about 650 MB of content, so at the end of the year we should be easily eligible to be free. I do intend to clean up some of the content.

Please don’t do anything right now, it will take a week or two for the transfer to happen. Over the next couple of days I will initiate the transfer process.  We promise to keep you informed and how to opt out if you choose.

Thanks.

Sam Hoskins & Paul Fisher

If you log on to groups.io, in the upper right corner you should find access to your profile that you should be able to edit.  This is a learning process for all of us!

i am looking for profile. We’ll want to know our locations etc. 

 

 According to Yahoo, as of October 28 we will not be able to upload any content. This means you can’t send messages, photos or anything else, but you can still access the site here https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/Q-LIST/info to view or download UNTIL December 14 when all previously posted content on the site will be permanently removed.

The new Q-List board will located at https://q-list.groups..io/g/main .. When Groups.io completes their transfer of our content, you will be automatically added to the group. However, if you want to join now you can do so at that page. It will be a week or two before Groups.io completes the transfer.

There will certainly be a little crossover, so it is probably better to keep posting your messages on the Yahoo board until October 28. You will not be able to post to the new board until you have either been transferred or you signed up individually.

Please add Q-List@groups.io to your contact list to avoid being mistaken for spam.  

I'll try and keep you completely informed.  And, thanks for the donations.

Rob, Yahoo is closing their lists down. Dead. Buried. Decomposed.

That's why.Â

Here is an article about it.Â

I would be happy to continue using YahooGroups as
a pure message list. I never ever use the files /
polls / links / photos / folders / calendar /
database functionality. And maybe I'm not alone.
Why then move the list? The change will surely disrupt membership severely.
