The engineers and tech support and customer service people at Yahoo Groups should be ashamed of themselves for allolwing this massivly stupid problem to remain for as long as it has. It's appalling.

It’s appalling.

This problem began in March 2009. I belong to 4 groups. I cannot search anything since March 9th-16th, 2009, depending on which of the 4 groups, I try to search. This blog was started on March 17, 2009. It is now October 24, 2009 This problem has been ongoing for over 7 months now. When will the problem be fixed…. or as you say “migrated” to the working system? Why would it take 7 months or longer to fix the problem? Thank you. Now… to Melissa Daniels or other Yahoo Groups representative or tech…

Why would it take 7 months or longer to fix the problem?

Thank you.

However, in the record of total posts for the month of September, only 2 are logged as having occurred.

Could someone perhaps give us an update on this particular problem?

Coming from a programming background, I can honestly and without reservation say that I cannot see how allowing a program bug of this magnitude in impact to customers to continue for 6 months is acceptable in any way, shape or form. My response mentioned a delay from their originally scheduled due date of early June which is still 3 months time!! An upgrade should never be allowed to users until well tested. While it is true that typically going Live will still reveal some straggling problems, this is clearly more a disgrace than a disappointment... and I make that harsh statement because of the fact that even though Yahoo has been made aware of the problem 6 months ago, it has yet to be corrected. What a poor reflection on the programming abilities of Yahoo! I have asked that my comments be passed along to any and all individuals in direction-leading positions within the organization in the hopes that someone might see the light of rectifying such an embarrassing situation.... before the integrity and reputation of Yahoo degrades even further. Yikes, Yahoo!!! I finally got a response to one of my many, many pleas for attention to the 6-MONTH OLD MESSAGE SEARCH BUG.

My group members are wondering what we must do to solve this. I think they want to revolt. :-o If I choose to move my group to Google groups is there a way to export the yahoo group messages, like a mysqldump?
