Yahoo groups is shutting down, should we save the content? - lets do it
Steve Blackmore
The footer shows you as joint owner?

开云体育Hi Bill,
?
You are still an owner for the
group on Yahoo.
?
The first step would be trying to log into
with the user name:? wcanliker
?
Don't be surprised if Yahoo seems to hang and leaves you with a blank
page. Their servers are overloaded due to the pending shutdown. Just try
refreshing the page and if necessary, try again.
?
Then, if you can remember your password, enter that when requested.
?
If you do not remember your password, the sign-in page will have a
link for "I forgot my password" directly under the place where you typed in your
user name.
?
If you had given Yahoo a cell phone number, it will ask if you can
access that cell phone number. If you answer?YES, it will send you a?verification number
via a text message.
?
You then put that number into the web page that comes up after you
answered?YES.
?
If you answer?NO or you have
never given Yahoo a cell phone number, it will send?the verification number?to you via
email using the same email address?as you
normally use. I cannot confirm that because they have my cell number and
I have not seen the alternate email method in action.
?
You will probably now be asked to provide other information to assist
in the case of future verification efforts. Hopefully you can opt out of those
unless you want to provide it.
?
Once you get signed into Yahoo groups, go to the CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO
page. Near the top right of the page there will be a link for "Management" with
a down arrow next to it.
?
Click on the down arrow and select "Manage Members".
?
On the resulting page listing the members, there will be a "Search
Members" box near the top right of the page.
?
Enter "morerust" without the quotes into the search box and click on
the magnifying glass to start the search.
?
It should find Steve Stallings as morerust. Click on the name
"morerust" in the list shown. This will pop up an Edit Member dialog
box.
?
In the box beside the entry for Role, click on the down arrow and select
Owner, and then click on?SAVE at the
bottom of the dialog box. Clicking on SAVE is
required for this to work.
?
This will change my status to co-owner. You will also remain as the
owner.
?
Thanks,

Just now I have been given the privileges needed to transfer the group to 开云体育. The process has been kicked off, and hopefully there is enough time for it to happen. Because of name restrictions (no underscore allowed in names) the new group will be here: The transfer may take a couple of weeks based on current backlog. You do not need to subscribe to the new group, that should happen automatically and your welcome email will provide an option to not be subscribed if you are no longer interested. Meanwhile subscription requests and attempts to post will be moderated and delayed until the group is loaded onto 开云体育 servers. Thanks to all who helped me get the access needed. Regards, Steve Stallings |
开云体育Hi Bill,
?
As best I know it was Andy Wander who promoted me, after he
was promoted by Tim Goldstein.
?
What matters is that we are now in the queue for
transfer.
?
It may take several weeks as the queue has become dramatically
longer as time went by.
?
Regards,
Steve Stallings
