I think the discussion about post-mortems is vitally important, so I'm
adding a new subject line for the discussion about the venue. I was one of
the people involved in the discussion of post-mortems, and I'll add my
comments to the original thread (and summarize what others have said) in a
moment.

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.
