Microfinance Practice: Re: [MFP] MFP is completely coming to an end tomorrow

Dear Chuck, I am a member of this group since inception.Yes many of us are getting old and older.My gut feeling is that the true spirit of MF is reviving.(New poverty dimensions of covid) And is desperately looking for older footprints.There are many ways to create activities.Let us not lose the treasure. Regards Tahir Shah.

Out of curiosity, other MFP subscribers...where HAVE you migrated to? There is certainly much to talk about these days, so I'm curious where the action is.
Thanks to all!

Hi all,

Howard and I set up this email group on Yahoo on 1 May 2001, over 19 years ago. We have 2,656 members. In the past, there was a large amount of discussion on this group, but for various reasons, it currently has little activity.

I just got notice that Yahoo is closing down the email group service tomorrow. They gave not even a week's notice. As of tomorrow, your emails will be returned as unsinkable.

So this is it…. Any discussions will now have to take place on other services you've migrated to. I'm certainly not going to go to the effort of setting up a new group and managing memberships when there is so little activity on the current group.

It has certainly been an interesting (and tumultuous) 19 years. Lots of differing views on the changes that happened in so short a time. Discussions of those views will now need to take place in other venues.

Regards to all,

Chuck Waterfield
