Hair, did you see my post above about setting up a second yahoo group? That way, we wouldn't have to remove anything, and if we get caught by TPTB, we won't lose our real group...
If you make it publicly accessible but don't list it, we could just share the group id amongst ourselves and then shut down the group once everyone has the file.
If you want me to, I'd be happy to set up the new group and then you could upload the file. I think it'd be easier than having to download and then upload all of our current files...
OK - I don't know how to set up a yahoo group, so that sounded harder to me! Give me a place to put it and I will upload it anywhere! Ecurbh may have solved his technical issue too... Has he reported back on whether it is fixable at his site?
