Yahoo sent out a notice that Yahoo Groups is closing. I know that there is at least one group of player active on that platform. Is there someone who could back all of the threads up? It would be a shame to lose all of that "Institutional" knowledge.

I own the takamo tarkia group but don't know how to back it up.

I asked Thom Walla to see if he could figure out how to do that.

I found this article about backing up Yahoo Groups a while back: https://www.theverge.com/2019/11/4/2091 ... oad-how-to

In fairness, though, I found the process annoying and didn't finish it. So IDK how well it works.
