I looked into this a little. I see Bluehost has PhpBB but I don’t know what’s involved in setting it up and transferring this group. The groups.io site advertises automatic transfer of Yahoo groups which is a huge advantage. However, how confident are people that it will be around for years?
Comments? Suggestions? Volunteers to help with the transfer and administer the new site?

?Thanks for the heads up. Would have been nice if Yahoo had notified me. I’ve only been the group owner for 15 years. Anyway, I’ve wanted to get this off of there for a long time to a better forum platform. I looked into it a few years ago but didn’t get too far.
I’ll have to look into alternatives including groups.io. Is anyone here interested in helping with this? Preferably someone with experience in forums? I’ll also have to see what my email/web hosting company (bluehost) has available these days.

?As some of you may know, as of December 14th Yahoo will delete any files or images uploaded or attached to the groups. Also, I believe they are moving to permanently end the Yahoo groups site from what I have read.
It would be heartbreaking to lose the valuable info on this group. It’s invaluable for owner based repairs, especially in the case of the CS80 where moving the unit is risky and most techs wouldn’t want to take the job of repair on anyhow.
It seems like 开云体育 might be worth looking into but we’ll need to do something for sure.
