Wow, this thread exploded fast.

The google group archive above is not controlled by Autodesk. It was
created by Patrick Boucher (remember xsi-blog.com?) and he later handed
me the admin privileges. I am following this list on a daily basis even
though I don't post very often anymore.
As Luc-Eric already said, if anything happens to the official list, we
can just switch the archive to be a normal list, and things can continue
from there. If Autodesk was to shut down this list, I think they would
announce it beforehand. We would have some time to react then.
You can contact me if you feel we should change things.
Cheers.

My fellows, friends, comrades.
The recent events that have befallen our community enunciate a breaking.
After this nothing or very little will be the same. People will
shortly be departing for uncertain pastures. One way or another, a
long journey through the night awaits us all, and we will find new
lights and some will find new apps to call home.
But I think that it is important we take steps to preserve this
community even if our paths seem to be at a crossing. For the
knowledge and solace woven here, surely they can not take.
If we are to move to a new list or to regroup around an existing
resource, eg: SI-community, we should do so soon before someone comes
along and shuts down this list scattering us to the winds of which not
all of us may find their way back.
I salute you all you are,were,and will be forever the best and fines
this industry could hope for.
