Re: Can I move my Big Tent group to groups.io? #transfer


 

Milt,

BigTent responded saying that they will not take action on requests
from anyone other than the current moderator of a group, so we will
funnel our request through the current moderator. I'll do a post here
on any response we receive.
I'm confused.

From yesterday's post I thought you already had a response - and a very positive one at that!
/g/GroupManagersForum/message/11476

I had meant to reply to that message but hadn't gotten to it yet. So I guess now's the time.

The dump was in .tgz format, and our tech guru, Bob Leder,
successfully created a simple python program to convert the entries
from that dump into email messages and mail them individually to our
groups.io group. They're showing up just perfectly on the new group.
Presumably they're showing as From Bob, and with the date he ran the program. Did he include the original poster's name and the original date in his (program's) messages?

In any case though, bravo!

It seems to me that something of the sort could be done with messages caught in any proprietary format - such as a PG Offline export of a Yahoo Group, or an mbox export from a Mailman list, or ...
