Thanks all,
I finally was able to contact the list owner and despite his dislike of Yahoo he made me a co-list owner and I was able to make groups.io a moderator
and have requested a files transfer. Hopefully YahooGroups does not collapse first.

create the the io group, invite everyone, then set the yahoo group to
"all moderated" and start increasing the moderation time for each post
more and more, while repeating the invitations ..
this should get a critical mass of the active posters to migrate
then you can announce a close down of the yahoo group
moral: always have two different people with owner rights in your group
