That Yahoo is doing this is no surprise. When Google started out its GMail and Groups, there was a long article in Time Magazine in which they stated that they would not taint these relationships by addding advertising. Now GMail has advertising all over, plus it is given over to advertisers so we are targeted with the ads based on the content of our email that we create and receive.
So I am interested to see what they do with Groups and Gmail. All along it appears that the "free" service is meant to be revenue producing. They denied, denied, that there would ever be a charge for their email or hosting groups, but we shall see. In the meantime, if there is anything in this group's archives that is important for you to keep, keep a copy in a safe place so you will always have it. Ancestry.com is the major force behind Rootsweb at this time. Ancestry.com also is connected with many other genealogy giants and seems to be taking over.
