That may make sense if we had more than 2-3 developers.
Otherwise it's too much of a management issue.

I was hoping to actually cut and paste some info from
email into the Wiki. Or write some answers in the Wiki
and provide links in replies.

however I'm not going to put content into the Wiki until
I understand how it can be saved. Eg a github repository
just for the wiki content might be good, if we can get 
a background job to regularly commit it.

The main reason for using FB is that I happen to have an account
there for social reasons (friends and relatives, and quite a few
children of friends it's kind of nice to keep up with).

I have a G+ account too, but I have never used it.
It starts off with "what's hot" news feed which immediately
turned me away. Haven't been back, since I don't know anyone
with a G+ account. Also I found the layout a complete mess:
FB is really simple. And I have no idea what "Circles" are:)
