I believe I may have contributed there in the past and may in the future. I think (having tried various option myself) adding a subdomain to justanotherlanguage.org running phpbb https://www.phpbb.com/
like this http://www.forum.radios-tv.co.uk/ Yahoo is ghastly, really only designed as an email reflector and they could shutter it tomorrow. Google groups is nearly as bad and they have no loyalty and will shutter it tomorrow if they find and easier way to sell adverts. justanotherlanguage.org should have a repository (can mirror to google code). If serious there should be a management board and plan to continue if owner/founder of justanotherlanguage.org dies / ill / loses interest etc. With a backup held by someone else that can restore the code, samples, forum, etc etc in event of any problem. Splitting between Google, Yahoo and justanotherlanguage.org is madness. Relying on Google or yahoo for anything other than throwaway info is mad. 30+ years later people are still using Z80 and 8051 code and new projects with them.
