Moving Content from Yammer IT Pro Network

Whilst there should indeed be a record made available if needed, as discussed in Yammer, many of our conversations were done in a spirit of a relatively closed, professional environment. There is a LOT of discussion and no small amount of files in the Yammer itpro network that people would certainly not want accessible via a Google/Bing search since it might well appear out of context and be taken wrongly.

It is utterly bonkers that Microsoft would simply close the existing Yammer network without any reference to the people who made it what it is. Why can't the Yammer network at least be made read-only with data retained for reference for a period that would allow us to extract and close down the information in a sensible fashion and to find other ways to build up the relationships with professionals across the world that we currently only know through Yammer.

(I'm not, of course directing this at you Dean as we have both been vocal on the Yammer side).
