[Milsurplus] [ARC5] Yahoo groups going away?

[jphutch60bj]

Gordon, Robert, All -

I was, "am" a member  of Yahoo Group:  BC-348_BC-224 See attached files;

(I do not know about ARC5 group as I was not a member there.) The area 
included Email-Posts, and numerous howto files.

We may not be able to get the files stored on the yahoo group site, my 
understanding is  the admin's had the power to move the data to a new 
location, such as groups.io .   Initially this had to be completed 
around October/December time frame 2019.  Because of such an outcry, 
yahoo extended the time frame to copy data off the Groups area.  Many 
groups moved to groups.io and preserved a trove of knowledge.

If this is spam, I apologize for spamming your inbox;

Hutch
