It is appropriate for the list but just say what group the "we" are,
still don't know.  Would also be nice to work with Manchester Free
Software on this.  And would be great for GUADEC to work with Manchester
Free Software too.

Facebook links aren't welcome on the list and shouldn't be part of Free
Software projects.  It is very disappointing that GNOME project promotes
such things, especially since they say they "promote software freedom"
(does non-free JavaScript of Facebook not count?) and "are proud members
of the GNU Project".
