Hi dear Marcus, I didn't really want to move attention from here to other places! The GNURadio website didn't constructed "informative". I mean any updates to the website do not appear for GNURadio followers. At least one of the Facebook advantages is its real-time interactions and communications. I'm not gonna compare this page with this mailing list, however, Facebook let more people engages in GNURadio.
