I can just see every single networking service on Earth being listed, for neutrality ... a bit like the Special:BookSources page that comes up when you click on an ISBN. This sort of thing would best be implemented as a gadget, which users can then choose to switch on with their chosen selection of places to post to. We would need to make sure there were no privacy issues. Users can of course choose to reveal anything they like to Facebook - but is there anything we would need to take care not to reveal inadvertently? Is there a way not to accidentally link their WP username to their Facebook real name, for instance? - d. _______________________________________________ foundation-l mailing list foundation-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/foundation-l
