Need: accessible discussion group file sharing platform

Hi All,
I have a group (~25) of braille transcribers who would like to have a
closed discussion list that allows file sharing and is accessible.
Google groups used to work pretty well, but they have removed the file
sharing. Switching between interfaces (groups and docs) is not going
to work for these folks. Does anyone out there know of such a tool -
simple, easy to use, limited features, and accessible? Oh, and Free.

I have googled but can't seem to find the right terms to eliminate
brain storming, live collaboration, etc. the minus list is longer than
the actual search term list...but not finding anything that fits the
bill.
Hoping the crowd will help point me in the right direction.

Thanks
Jim
