    Looks like Yahoo Groups in general and the FEMM support site in particular are being phased out. I've opend up this forurm as an alternate site for FEMM-related support questions

    David,
    There is been a great deal of discussion femm@yahoogroups.com w.r.t securing the mountain of information held on femm@yahoogroups.com , to continue the discussion group and to ensure the information is not lost.
    It has been proposed to use femm@groups.io which has a cost of $220 and is in the process of building up donations. The site is now open.
    We understand Dr. David Kirkby' drkirkby@kirkbymicrowave.co.uk [Femm] is the current moderator spokesperson for this chat room and wishes to pass the job on to a new up and coming professional and is looking for volunteers.

    You have advised FEMM members change over to Source forge.

    Are arrangement in place for the transfer of the femm@yahoogroups.com files to Source forge FEMM discussion site?

    In the light of new information is it still your recommendation to use Source forge FEMM. Whatever the recommendation is members will support the decision and transfer over as soon as possible.

    By the way thank you for all the work you have done in developing FEMM and releasing the program on a free to open source basis.

    David Meeker,
    Ops! Correction
    “It has been proposed to use
    Delete "femm@yahoogroups.com"
    add " https://groups.io/g/femm"

    I have been advised the femm@yahoogroups.com data is in process transference to https://groups.io/g/femm

    It is excellent the data is being secured by Dr David Kirkby. Thanks

    The femm@yahoogroups.com is not be used in favour of Groups.io/FEMM to ensure all the data is transferred without interuption.

    I didn't realize that the group had been transplanted to https://groups.io/g/femm. I will point my support links to there instead.
