Hi. It's Sandra. Staring Monday, Yahogroups will pretty much close shop. I'll be able to send an e-mail to the members, but I think only that.
This should be post #78,621 and it's coming (it's going) at a bad time for me, so I don't have much time to save much (or anything). The good thing is that I have, over the past 18 years, saved LOTS of good parts from this group, and added them to topic pages on my website.
Gradually, I will need to delete links back to this group, where I have provided them for people to read the whole discussion. I think my site is already too big for anyone to read, so that's fine. No one has ever needed ALL the topics.
We could move new posts to a different host site. Has anyone here used https://groups.io ?
Does anyone know of other options?
One possibililty would be to quietly let this slip away, with more dignity than whining. (I am writing to my own self, there.)
If this is easier to discuss on facebook, for anyone, here:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/755519507972056/permalink/1229863523870983/
In case I don't get back in here before I can't post directly anymore, thank you all for being here, and special thanks to all who ever helped keep the group alive and lively—writers, moderators, and admins. This group and the little Always Learning Live conferences that sprang from it were a solid, happy, part of my life. Solidity is dissolving, now, as it sometimes does. Ice to water to vapor. The benefits are still out here, in thoughts and minds and lives.

Lots of people read and write directly at yahoogroups, and don't use e-mail anymore, so "still" isn't applicable to everyone. The format of the e-mails has degraded over the past year or two.

This has landed in my inbox at quite a poignant time; my eldest two have chosen to opt into high school in the last six weeks - unschooled until 12 and 14; they researched the schools and have taken the whole thing in their stride. My eldest was put into the highest sets across the board and is holding her own comfortably; the youngest has already shown compassion and wisdom beyond her years excelling not just academically but socially - an email from her head of house communicating her 'remarkable transition'. The integrity and confidence with which they turned up to a school of 1800 students (at different times) knowing no-one at a time which was absolutely right for them is absolute confirmation of the power of unschooling. For those of you who are not so far into your journey; I can wholeheartedly say..have faith, stick in there; this group, everything Sandra lives by is true.

Sandra,We are in the process of moving our group over. I am just starting to get up to speed because I have been downloading all of our files from the group website so that we have them archived somewhere.There is a help group that actually answers questions. You can send out mass invitations to your Yahoo group members and it is easy to just click a link to accept membership.Our method was to invite all of the moderators first and make them moderators and then start inviting members. There is some numerical limit of the number of invitations, but I am not sure what that is since I have been handing the archiving.So far, we are happy with how the groups io works. I will update you if I find out more.chris esterOn Sun, Oct 20, 2019 at 8:51 PM Sandra@... [AlwaysLearning] <[email protected]> wrote:Vicki, I don't like change either. :-)

Being able to save the archive would be so helpful. I don't know how many people still do that, but I still do searches with key-words in here, from time to time.
Thank you everyone, and especially you Sandra, for all the time, dedication, clarity and integrity you've put in it from the start.

Completely and utterly tangibly - our family is transformed forever. And there has been a gentle ripple effect to many other families. I get told i am ‘inspiring’ by quite a few friends these days - slightly embarrassingly - and it’s this group i am drawing from, every time.
Huge thanks from my family and the wider world..
But even the acceptance that everything moves on, all is transient, changing, is beautiful too.

Hi. It's Sandra. Staring Monday, Yahogroups will pretty much close shop. I'll be able to send an e-mail to the members, but I think only that.
This should be post #78,621 and it's coming (it's going) at a bad time for me, so I don't have much time to save much (or anything). The good thing is that I have, over the past 18 years, saved LOTS of good parts from this group, and added them to topic pages on my website.
Gradually, I will need to delete links back to this group, where I have provided them for people to read the whole discussion. I think my site is already too big for anyone to read, so that's fine. No one has ever needed ALL the topics.
We could move new posts to a different host site. Has anyone here used https://groups.io ?
Does anyone know of other options?
One possibililty would be to quietly let this slip away, with more dignity than whining. (I am writing to my own self, there.)
If this is easier to discuss on facebook, for anyone, here:

In case I don't get back in here before I can't post directly anymore, thank you all for being here, and special thanks to all who ever helped keep the group alive and lively—writers, moderators, and admins. This group and the little Always Learning Live conferences that sprang from it were a solid, happy, part of my life. Solidity is dissolving, now, as it sometimes does. Ice to water to vapor. The benefits are still out here, in thoughts and minds and lives.
