FB 2010 Oct Knotties page... getting upgraded??

I was just on the 2010 October Knotties page and this message was at the top:

Over the next few months, Facebook will be archiving all groups created using the old groups format. Moving forward, you can create groups using the new groups format, which makes it easy to share with the important groups in your life.

When you click on the learn more link it says:

 When your old group gets archived, it will be converted to the new groups format. Almost everything from your old group will be available in the archived group, with a few exceptions.

Things that will be available in the archived version include:

  • Group photos and Wall posts
  • Group discussion threads, which become Wall posts
  • The group description, which can be found at the top of the page when you click "See All" members in the new group

Things that will NOT be available in the archived version include:
  • Recent news
  • Group officer titles
  • The info box under the old group picture
  • The group network
  • The members of your old group. You can still add new members by clicking "Add Friends to Group.

Notice that last bullet there.... we're going to loose all the members :( So is there a way that admins if the fb group can look into converting us and then readding everyone?

    Ooooh okay. So it sounds like we'll be okay as long as one of the admins upgrades it? yay!

    If the admin of an old group decides to upgrade, the group will be converted to the new groups format. If the admin chooses not to upgrade, the group will eventually be archived. Almost everything from the old group will be available in the upgraded group, with a few exceptions.

    Things that will be available in the new group include:

    • Group photos and Wall posts
    • Group discussion threads, which become Wall posts
    • The group description, which can be found at the top of the page when you click "See All" members in the new group
    • Members of the old group will be migrated to the new group

    Things that will NOT be available in the new group include:
    • Recent news
    • Group officer titles
    • The info box under the old group picture
    • The group network

    Once the group is upgraded, members can:
