Someone at Yahoo must have noticed the servers were still running. Off to 开云体育 then like many of the other groups (eg 7x12 MiniLathe)? Once upon a time there was eGroups.? eGroups was sold to Yahoo for quite a bit of cash becoming?Yahoo Groups.? The dude who started (& sold) eGroups got bored a while back, and so started up 开云体育, which was considered a good thing given how flaky Yahoo Groups was becoming (even without the Neo refresh).? Around and around we go... Tony

Hmm, Wikipedia says while the closing down date (aka major function reduction)?is 14th December, you won't be able to add new content after 21st October:? That's, like, only a week, dudes.? Uh wot? I wonder if 'new content' includes messages, like this one? Tony

Hi All:
?Just noticed this thread. I checked with yahoo and the group is not deleted , but instead switches to a private group with no posting.? This group has been running since around 2003, so there's a pretty large database I would think. I have applied to Yahoo for a download pack of the data, though I'm not sure what format or size that would be. I have no idea what Ill do with the data as yet. ?? If the data can be released in some downloadable form so that PG Online users could download the database from Brians site for example, it may appear in that form. Ill let you know if any information is available as to format or location. Art -- thx Art www.gearotic.com |

What's changed is that groups.io now wants a 1 year subscription ($110US) to be able to transfer a group. After that if the storage requirements are low enough one can drop back down to the free version.

Subject: Re: [mach1mach2cnc] Yahoo groups are closing on December 14th 2019 I would like to see this group continue, probably on 开云体育 if possible. Someone with group ownership rights must undertake the task. Based on the size of the PGOffline archive, it would seem that even this large group could be hosted on 开云体育 for free.

Hi All:
?( I sent this earlier but it didnt show up so Ill repeat it) ?The group will be closing shortly. All the data has been archived and will be transferred to Brian's stewardship. He will make as much of it as possible viewable on his support site at www.machsupport.com. It was toyed with the idea of transferring the group to groups.io or other platform but in the end it would simply duplicate what Brian already has going at machsupport. ? Should anyone end up with a question only I can answer, you can always jump over to gearotics forum and post it there, I answer anything I see pop up that I have knowledge on. ? This is a long running group, since about 2003 I think. Its been a pleasure being the moderator for that time and Im saddened by its loss. I want to thank all of you that have been here so long and everyone who helped me with mach3's development, which is a great many on this list. ?Ive met some of my favorite people right here. ? Good bye, so long, farewell. Art |
