It won't be long.

As far as Google's reluctance to talk about what they're up to, they seem to have a flat policy not to talk about that stuff.

Or else they don't care and aren't doing much. AEC and by extension 3D modeling is not part of their core search/advertising financial continuum. I've been worried about that since they bought @Last. I suspect that if the Google Overlords weren't so besotted with the science fiction novel "Snowcrash" they would not have acquired Keyhole (Google Earth), and they only bought and free-bied SketchUp as a quick way to fill GE with visual content.

in reality it's probably 2 members, 2 guests and 100 google bots.

Probably right John
What I find hard to fathom is why, when firstly they were going to 'migrate' in 3 days, it is now taking the best part of a month?
Google are saying its taking so long because they want to get everything right
Yeah .....makes you wonder what they had in mind for their original move....

Stu, my guess would be:

"Absolutely nut'n!"

JuanV.Soler

i´m confident
i think they´ll make it, fair enough

any bets

Will03

my bet would be that google would have opened one group to replace the entire forum, and then just shut down the other forums while they did the migration in the background.

i guess we did make a little difference...

Yes, you all did make a difference. People listened.
