When you say that it was uploaded a few weeks ago, do you actually mean many years ago?
The upload dates from 30 april 2017. Quote:
There are only three groups/forums currently used to support BB4W and BBCSDL
OK, but the Yahoo site is still accessible and as you can see Malcolm has succeeded to upload a file and sent a mail (to all members ?). I still have access to the Yahoo Group and could navigate around to find the file and download it. I've just made a check. Since 2006 there have been no downloads. Except : just recently since 30 april 2017 Malcolm has downloaded 4 . Quote:
Just follow the links. Maybe if you're not a member anymore, you may have to register first, I'm not sure. Or, if you prefer, I can send you the files directly. Just let me know. Quote:
There are only three groups/forums currently used to support BB4W and BBCSDL: the Wiggio group (which is due to close down soon), the Groups.io group and this Conforums group
The general conclusion, I think, is that Malcolm just needs to be reminded to upload to one of the new groups (Groups.io or this Conforum) It would be a waste to loose his, and possibly, though not likely, other people's contributions
Not to me, but I vaguely remember being banned from that group just after I created the 'bb4w' group as a replacement. My recollection is that somebody unhappy with BB4W and/or me somehow managed to contact the original group owner (who had been 'absent' for years) and persuaded him to take it over again. One of his actions was to set it so all messages require approval, and another was to ban me. If you can see the message archive you may be able to remind yourself of the sequence of events.
Anyway, anybody uploading a file to that group now is just 'having a laugh' because it hasn't had anything to do with BBC BASIC for Windows for many years. Even being able to upload files at all is an anomaly, because since messages can't be posted no discussions about the file(s) could take place.
I would just ignore any uploads there as rogue and irrelevant.
