Hello you five!

I'm just responding to the "fact", that there are only 5 "contributors"
on this mailing list.

I think there must be more. I'm usually a lurker but sometimes have something to say.

...
Why not create agroup on facebook and other platforms? I'm shure we
would have hundreds of active contributors, willing to engage, to
organise and participate in events. And those would be mostly, young
and/or motivated!

I guess it's a gerneration thing. I did try Facebook but find it doesn't suit me. Also, people who used to offer valuable contributions to mailing lists such as this, now spend their time posting every burp of their children or what flavour sandwich they happen to be eating. The stuff is so dilute and transient I can't see it becoming a valuable resource for Ubuntu. I'm sure Facebook, Twitter etc can be used in a meaningful manner, but I havn't been able to find it.

On the other hand, many newcomers, even you Philipp, are not familiar with mailing lists (i.e. please don't bottom-quote! ;-) )

So I guess we face a fork from us old mailing-list types to the young facebook generation.


Cheers, Theo
