We are having various problems with the new Yahoo Groups (neo). Is this the proper channel for user feedback to Yahoo developers?

Quoted messages often appear without identity of poster?

Occasional messages cannot be deleted?

Message search is now unavailable except for message number?

Photo reordering is very slow and boggy and it does not show photo file names.

You cannot directly email the person who posted a message?

Conversations group messages by subject line over multiple years.

Selected Yahoo identity is not used for uploaded photos?

Slideshow should not zoom on photos that have already been cropped.

In Bret Victor's "Inventing on Principle" presentation, which can easily be googled on Vimeo, a proposal is made for personal principles which influence design choices or the launching of projects. Do you believe this is a valid viewpoint? His examples are interesting from a software designer's viewpoint.

If you know that the Empire State Building is struck by lightning an average of 100 times per year then how can you calculate the probability of it being struck at least once within a specified number of days? Would this answer differ from the situation where you truly knew that exactly 100 random events would definitely occur per year? Thanks!

I am required to purchase a Dreamweaver bundle for a web design class. Even with the education discount this is quite expensive. The instructor is suggesting we purchase the CS4 version but I'm not so sure it makes sense to buy the previous version when it will just be sinking further into obsolescence by the time I finish the class. Any expert opinions? Thanks!
