If it stops there, fine. But it then uses the copy in some fancy but buggy
interface it calls Google Groups and encourages people to become 'member' to
participate in them. That part is quite different. I am just not sure I like
anyone using my posts for something interactive like that. Archive, searchable,
the like. Great. Reuse them for another purpose and you're slipping and sliding
somewhere not necessarily good.
