Life In 19x19

It's so sad

I have been meaning to attend these classes, but I find it hard to keep up with all the KGS Plus lectures. I scouted around the net for a bit, but could not find an anouncement saying these classes are stopping. Could you post a link please?

Mingjiu just announced it in the class, I wept

Ouch, it's always sad to lose a good source of education. Did he mention why the classes were being discontinued?

Those classes were fantastic... It's a real shame to lose them. I assume the Ing foundation has decided to stop funding them for whatever reason, but I'm greatful that they did.

What, stopped funding them?

ING foundation has been losing money. Not a surprise that they discontinued the class, but it was such a good class...

If we raised enough money we could restart it

I just have to ask how is it different from KGS Plus?

If we can get more people to join and pay Mingjiu or Guo Juan for weekly instead of monthly?

Unfortunately I can't attend these classes anyway, because I don't have time to hang around online on Sunday afternoons. But when I started playing I watched them regularly and I think that without them I would still be DDK. It's a real shame that lecture series is discontinued.
