Morgan, in Yahoo Groups's list of "content," there's no mention of messages, and they go on to say, "On October 21st, you will no longer be able to upload any content to the site. To share info with members of your groups, you'll continue to be able to do so via email." It's not clear to me whether they're getting rid of the messages on the site (i.e., the only service they will offer in the future is email) or are getting rid of everything *except* the messages (i.e., the only service they will offer in the future is email and some sort of access to previous emails).

Either way, I'll be downloading the messages of the groups I moderate, so thanks much for the links. But do you have any additional thoughts on their garbled announcement?
