   * Regarding transfer to groups.io, groups.io says in brief: transfer requests must be given the go-ahead by 12/1/2019 as they cannot guarantee transfers submitted after that date.  Also it appears that most Photos sections are currently [as of 10/19/2019] having an outage and it isn't known if they'll be restored prior to that deadline.   * Regarding transfer to groups.io, groups.io says in brief: transfer requests must be given the go-ahead by 12/1/2019 as they cannot guarantee transfers submitted after that date.  Also it appears that most Photos sections are currently [as of 10/19/2019] having an outage and it isn't known if they'll be restored prior to that deadline.
  
 +===Dreamhost===
 +Dreamhost is a ISP (Internet Service Provider) that offers free services to 501c3 organizations.  I (Steve Isenberg) own an account there (I pay for it) and it is no added cost to me to create another email list and to store files there.  
 +  * Dreamhost uses the Mailman email interface that provides good email list management, and management of the list can be handled by several people, not just me.  
 +  * As with groups.io, members of the list would have a password and would be able to manage their subscription.  
 +  * Files would be stored as part of the wiki I also have for LCTG; although there may be other options we could explore.
