And so it is goodbye to "Ol' Blue" as the previous Points of View message board incarnation slips slowly into the read-only night of being archived. Some of the community have jumped ship to form their own group on MSN, but most have safely made the transfer to the brave new world of a board hosted on the BBC's DNA platform.

And so far only two hootoo regulars have barged in, which counts as a success in my book ;-)

All my creaky HTML work on that board is finally going...

So long...
