Currently there is a vibrant Flicka user group using the free Yahoo groups system here:
Yahoo Flicka 20 Group
I have considered setting up our own forum group on this web site which would give us the following benefits:-
♦ Standard forum data format that could be exported and imported into future systems.
♦ Group sections such as 'meetings', 'maintenance' or 'purchasing a Flicka' so that messages would not all be lumped together in one forum.
♦ Better search and message-management facilities. Flicka owner control over everything.
However, the Flicka owners are content with the Yahoo system for now and having our own system of course increases maintenance to some level. So, for now, we will continue to use the Yahoo group and ponder the idea when the new site is complete.
