Notice: PISAM electronic mailing list service update

Dear PISA members,

PISA uses Yahoo! Groups as our discussion board and electronic mailing service. [PISAM] is the common group for us to distribute our messages to PISA members. Sadly, Yahoo! Groups has announced its End of Service. The Yahoo Groups website is going to shut down on December 15, 2020 and members will no longer be able to send or receive emails from Yahoo Groups. (Thanks Yahoo! Groups for providing the service in the past.)

The PISA Executive Committee has decided to change our mailing list service to Groups.io. Our valid members will receive our invitation from "pisam@groups.io Moderators" in the coming few days. The last batch of invitations will NOT be later than 15-NOV. Please accept the invitation and join our new PISAM group.

The invitation email maybe drops into your JUNK/ SPAM folder. Please take a look, release it and try to whitelist [pisam] emails in the future.

If you still cannot receive any invitation email, please feel free to contact us by email to membership@pisa.org.hk after 15-NOV for checking your email alias forwarding.

Thank you for your attention.
