Scheduled Maintenance:
We are undertaking some essential, but extensive maintenance to improve Yahoo!
Calendar. Your Group Calendar is being migrated to a much improved version of
Yahoo! Calendar. During the maintenance period, you may not have access to your
Groups Calendar.
We sincerely apologize for this inconvenience. Your Groups Calendar is in great
shape and we are working to have it available again as quickly as possible
