Hi Gang,
It appears that the transfer of A1G from YahooGroups to Groups.io is now complete.? You should all have received a welcome message.? Here is the report I received:
We've transferred the following parts of your group:
- Members
- Messages
- Photos
- Files
- Links
- Databases
IMPORTANT: Yahoo Groups has been very unreliable lately. If you find that you are missing Photos, Files or Messages, it is because we were unable to export them due to problems with Yahoo Groups. Also, we do not transfer calendar events.
Here are some statistics:
- Total Members Processed: 86
- Successfully Added: 75
- Bounced Members (Skipped): 8
- Moderated Members: 8
- Members on Digest: 7
- Undisclosed Emails (Skipped): 0
3 email addresses were not added (one is mine, I was already here, plus another person already subscribed, so that's really only one).
?
8 email addresses were not added because they were bouncing.
?
85 photos were transferred.
35 files were transferred.
4 links were transferred.
0 databases were transferred.? (We didn't have any.)
With the change to groups.io, there are a few changes.? The key change is that you cannot "opt out" of e-mail, however you can continue to receive digests in two formats if you don't want individual e-mails.? This was my call, not a groups.io restriction.? We are such a low-volume group anyway (only 429 messages since the start of the group!) that I would rather have fewer active participants than more non-active participants.
I need to take a look around the new site, after which I will "mothball" the YahooGroups version.
Cheers,
George
A1G list-owner
