-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, as a single, small, sometimes lost, developer, I ask you: please don't open side channels on your own. A lot of us have been around this mailing list for a very long time, and we try to keep information as concentrated as possible. Already now we see a lot of people following tutorials from more-or-less dubious, most of the time totally outdated websites. We should really try to keep gnuradio.org the official page for all information on GNU Radio. I don't see why anyone of the official core team should try to update a facebook page with release info etc, if there is no question that this information can and should be found in gnuradio.org; I think you might have gone a little to far promising constant updates. Also, there's a lively community around GNU Radio, and things like conference announcements never go unnoticed on the discuss-gnuradio mailing list, so I really don't see the demand for a more "communicative" platform. In fact, the mailing list, the #gnuradio on freenode, the github page, the gnuradio.org wiki and of course the regular hangouts as much as conferences and hackfests are so much communication that it actually amounts to a fair amount of work to keep up with all the information exchanged. All in all, facebook is really a terrible platform for discussion if you want to make information well-searchable, well documented, self-organized; the average time until a post on the mailing list goes answered is in the order of hours; as a lot of the community earns its money with software radio related occupations, I doubt the frequency of qualified answers on facebook would ever be as high as on the mailing list.
