Is there any up-to-date information on the wait for group transfer from yahoo to io groups?

A couple of friends set the wheels in motion over 3 weeks ago for their groups?and the transfer has not happened yet.? Is there anything they could/should do?

My first group transfer went well, but 2 more are "stuck" I sent the invitation to [email protected], the status checker says that it got the invite and get
"We've received the invite to your group and will accept it soon. There is no need to send another invite."

but nothing happens, the invitation never get's accepted, since I see no pending members in these groups (largescale and VaioU70).

The indications are that groups.io never accepted the invitation... and I did send the invitations again...

looks broken...


 

Mark was on vacation for about 10 days and transfers were on hold during that time because they require manual intervention.? There was a backlog of about 400 transfers when he returned.? Depending on the backlog, size of the groups transferring, and a few other variables, it can take some time for your group(s) to get to the top of the queue.? I'd give it 2-3 weeks after you get the notice that the invitation has been received.? From what I've heard, that can seem like forever as things on YG continue to deteriorate.? Makes me really glad I moved here over 3 years ago before transfers piled up! ;>)

I've read reports this morning in my Y!groups that the CAPTCHA mechanism, required to accept an invite or to join by web, is not working - fails to present an image to solve.?

If that's the case it may be another roadblock for the transfer agent.

Might ?it help if instead of sending an invite we did a direct add to the yahoo group mailing list? ?I think that still works.?

Yanoo's direct add died, I think, before NEO screwed things up.

I manually set up my IO group and set the wheels in motion for the group transfer to happen.
I sent invites to all the members in my Yahoo Group and then when the Yahoo Groups?started working again, 2 days later, I sent an note to the group telling them we are moving. At least IO group is working and we can wait until the transfer happens whenever.
