Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Web forum

[Jon Wallace <jonw@psubs.org>]

Thanks for your suggestion Luke.  I see a few issues with a facebook 
account such as it being yet another software tool to manage and an 
inability to control content.  I am facebook illiterate for the most 
part but I believe you can either have open or closed access.  If 
closed, it means we would have to manage adding people.  If open, it 
means anyone can write anything they like (start music discussions for 
example) that could detract from the intent of the account.  Given what 
we've discussed about the web forum, facebook doesn't sound attractive 
to me unless it can be limited as a portal to point to the official website.
