Hi Dunny,

Thanks for the response.

But i wasn't explaining myself well. My question wasn't clear.

I already know about the license transfering and "migrating" the forum. I will not be taking over the entire site -- not possible. Hence i wont own the forum. And the new owner will (presumably) "archive" it.

But my question really was about "archiving" a site. What is an archived site? Is it possible to keep a forum active on the new owner's "archived site?" Or will the forum need to be frozen -- no new posts, just a place available to look at?

Basically i want to know if there's any reason for us to try to convince the new owner to keep the forum alive IF we already know that it will be archived?

Again thanks for your patience.
