[osg-users] Closing of osg-users at lists.openscenegraph.org, please subscribe to osg-users googlegroup

[Werner Modenbach]

Hi Robert,

I followed your suggestion by replacing "myid" by my mail address, which isn't registered for a Google account.
There was no error message and I was forwarded to the Login page.
But logging in with the mail address failed with the message: "Your Google account could not be found" (translated myself)

So I'll wait if just the login fails and I get messages from the list or if everything failed.

Will keep you informed.
