Concern for PIO user community
We shut off all posts to the Goggle Group for PIO. This seems to have resulted in loosing virtually all users. We are getting comments on github issues asking if the project is defunct. Notice almost no user@ emails when there were several a day on the Google Group—why?
At the time of the last post we didn’t have instructions for how to join the mailing list. We now do so instructions posted to the group can now be updated. Also is it possible to turn on posting again and have the posts forwarded to user@predictionio.incubator.apache.org ? We can turn off in time once people have had a reasonable amount of time to switch over. People need time to react, like an @Deprecated notice.
Not sure who has the admin keys to the group, Donald? Simon?

Thanks, this should help.
I agree about Github issues, it was just an example of users being lost.

Also, last weekend the *.prediction.io <http://prediction.io/> domains have been migrated to redirect to predictionio.incubator.apache.org <http://predictionio.incubator.apache.org/>. This should hopefully remove all public references to Google Groups. Let's hope that would also clear up something.
I feel that we should not support GitHub issues going forward just like all other Apache projects are doing. For now I am manually redirecting traffic to Apache mailing lists and JIRA.

I just added huge banners to both Google groups web UI. Hope that would
help. Technically I do not think it is possible to set up forwarding. I
will sync up internally whether it's okay to turn on GGroup for the
