Nothing has changed as far as the registration email is concerned. I've double-checked - it has no valid SPF or DKIM certification, and no DMARC DNS record with at least a request for quarantin to spam. If being sent to spam than Gmail itself is doing that at the moment... However, fine and good if that is all you want (if it were possible for new registrants to realise they have to check their spam) and Gmail doesn't later choose to simply 'reject' as they might earlier have been doing. Let's hope, also, come November, the domain/hosting continues to be paid since it will be up for renewal.

The forum is important not because it at url murga-linux.com, rather it is the people who regularly use it that makes it important, and what url is used is totally unimportant.

The way it is organised (dis-organised) to help show its content IS important though: The Sections: "Taking the Puppy out for a walk" signifies no use for the myriad of other distros discussed on the forum, as do the subforums: "Puppy Project" and "Puppy Derivatives" since most of the other long-establed murga forum distros are neither projects about Puppy or derivatives of Puppy. If Flash or some other here has forum Administrator permissions then they have the ability to fix these anachronisms and are not representing all the forum membership if they do not do so.

Googles is always listening...

Is this good? Not necessary, knowing Googles, at this very moment they are checking what will be the cost for another merge. If Google purchase the cloud where the murga server is at. Then Googles can close the forum for not meeting new Googles rules!

What happens if this forum is not renewed (in November) ?

Good question.

That is still the unanswered question.
Which forum is going to stay up and running?
Who is going to pay for it?
Who is going to keep paying for it, so it does stay up?
