I would'nt say its emotional ;) FB is always scattered with ads and really 
unimportant jokes - so its a playground and it is *not* mailing list. I've just 
heard of people using it in such a way and it seems, almost anybody has an 
account.
But probably anybody has another alternative for mailing-lists.

I don't know, but it seems, google services are quite integrated.

Francisco already said it, I think ... google groups acts like a mailing list 
with integrated archive. One maintainer/admin needs a google account, the 
members can access it with any address.

So, shall we make a google group? I do have an infrequently used google account 
and could create a group.
