I can agree with what you're saying, Craig. I can also understand what
Brandon is saying - that some people prefer that interface.
Unlike many Facebook pages, though, this one is not public and cannot be
viewed by anyone who does not have a FB account. It's the one venue that
many interested parties cannot even read, let alone participate in, unless
they're willing to give up some fairly significant privacy. I am
disappointed, but I do not hold it against anyone for preferring to discuss
issues in a venue not associated with Wikimedia.

there's anything to be done about the resulting balkanisation of the
