Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Hi Florian,

Basic use with limited storage and features is free, and as far as I can tell it does not need to be for open source.

However….. if you want to migrate a Yahoo group, you *have* to get a premium plan for one year. (You can downgrade to a free plan afterwards.) And that one year plan is $110 / year. As far as I can tell you can have unlimited groups and/or migrations for that plan. I have two groups at Yahoo (PolySix and newmellotrongroup). Perhaps we can share the cost? Are there any other Yahoo moderators interested in sharing the cost?

I have looked at other alternatives (Google groups for example), but who knows for how long that will still exist. And there is no migration possibility. I could also host it as separate mailing lists on my synth-diy.org mailing list server, but there would be no file sharing etc.

Kind regards,
Ben
