OK. This latest round of bull from YahooGroups has me considering
what it would take to build a site on my own computer that would
replicate the most-used features of YahooGroups.

I'm part of an organization that has been using YG for various
mailing lists for the organization. We are considering running FAR
away from YG, but I'd rather have them run to something I set up,
than to another "free" site that will someday become not-free and/or
annoying in other ways.

So, I'm looking at what would need to be replaced. Of all the
features on YG, we use the following the most:

Mailing Lists (obviously)
Files Section
Polls
Calendar

I can easily replace each of these services individually, but have
not found anything yet that provides all of these. Has anyone else
thought about this problem? I'd appreciate any feedback you can
offer.
