*" The idea of switching this email list to Facebook".*
Facebook is a great platform, but the very concept and advantages of an
email-based mailing list is its *neutrality*, resilience, portability
across various devices and above all the ability to *archive* and search
for older messages and information.
Reading the answers from the other users, it seems we overall agree on this
topic :)

Besides, thanks to all of you, users of this ML, for the quality of your
conversations.

Sincerely,
François.
