yes i too agree btcguild and bitcoins.lc, the second is my personal choice for my own miners.
I would not like to see the miners at deepbit or slush or any other kind of obligatory fee pool
Yes, the purpose of this migration is to go to a no fee pool, so mining at deepbit would be counterproductive to that goal. BTCmine currently has a lower fee them so we'd actually end up paying more.
Seems GLBSE is back up recently.
Just checked, it's back up. We will be getting dividends paid out ASAP, as well as paying sharp and getting a vote out concerning the next mining pools. I will post when everything is all done.
