Yes, even our googlegroup too. But the fact of life is one cannot get 100%
freedom. All I see as compromising some freedom (by using twitter,facebook)
is good idea for getting wide presence of community. There are many students
who are in facebook and not aware of google groups and mailing system, they
like forums, So It is good to create facebook community too.. All we need a
wider acceptance of Free software/Open Source and Open Standards.

PS: I have told many time that Open Standards is more imp topic then Free
Software/Open Source. I can accept compromising some freedom (like very few
times I use Opera(a non-free browser) because it support some SVG feature
which firefox do not and my project need those features) But I never
compromise for Open Standard. Always ODF, OGG any cost.
Follow this approach.
