Yahoo Groups going away

Well, they might as well be.

Yahoo Groups is being crippled with much reduced functionality and all files, photo's and messages are to be deleted (supposedly around mid December, but it is already happening).

Such a shame as there were some very useful closed groups on there, homebrew SSB gear was plenty.
Maybe we can offer a similar but smaller scale platform for anyone who wishes to migrate? We don't have unlimited web storage space but we do have a lot not being used.

Groups.IO seems to be the alternative of choice at the moment (which, surprisingly, is operated by the person who originally set up Yahoo Groups).
