[Coco] The 'New Yahoo Group'

Thank you Dennis for stating this mailing list isn't going anywhere. I too
read these messages and it sounded like people were abandoning ship.

I fully understand Yahoo Groups shutting down, and I've archived all data
and messages of over 20 retro groups.

Now I'd like to ask, for the CoCo community, what is the point to setup a
IO.Groups account? For discussions, we have this mailing list, and Facebook
Group. For files, we have the CoCo Archives. For polls, we have Facebook
Group. (I get some folks don't want to be on Facebook.) There's also an
active Discourse (spell?) group.

For other retro platforms, they don't have the many active and rich
communities that the CoCo has, thus I see the need for IO.Groups (spell?)

Hate to go non-CoCo talk, but just asking as I couldn't understand the need
for that group for this community. What am I missing?

Thanks for any insight.

And as we say in Japan on January 1st...

Akemashite Omedetou Gozaimasu. (Happy New Year.) Kotoshi mo Yoroshiku
Onegaishimasu. (Please be favourable to me this year.)
