There is already a wiki, at http://wiki.igf-online.net; feel free to use
it.  Everything at http://igf-online.net runs on 100% open source
software, with no reliance on proprietary software or online services.

I agree that we should not make Facebook too integral to our operations,
due to the privacy concerns that many have about it.  However, I suppose
there is no harm to have it for those who are already Facebook users.
