				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-627" style="margin: 34px;" title="groups_medium" src="http://137.45.30.29/wordpress/wp-content/uploads/2009/02/groups_medium.gif" alt="groups_medium" width="150" height="55" />VLA Exective Committee endorsed the proposal to migrate VLA&#8217;s lists to Google Groups since it offers all the benefits of our<br />
previous lists, at no cost to VLA.</p>
<p>The old VLA listserv was deactivated today, Feb. 22, 2009.</p>
<ul>
<li>If you don&#8217;t have a Google account you will need to create one before joining the new list.</li>
<li>The Google Groups account will allow you to join the new list which will distribute email to the email address of your choice.</li>
<li>Creating a Google Groups account does not commit you to using Gmail.</li>
<li>Those of you who already have a Gmail account can use it to join this group.</li>
<li>Please feel free to customize your list profile and preferences.</li>
</ul>
<p>Invitations to join the new lists on Google Groups have been sent to all VLA listserv subscribers. If you were subscribed to multiple VLA lists, you will need to join each corresponding Google Group.</p>
<p>Again, if you don&#8217;t have a Google account you will need to create one before joining the VLA list(s) below</p>
