Hi Philipp,
Thanks for setting it up, it looks good. Since I have no account there
I will have to write it here, in the old-school way: I "like it" :)

That is fine with me. We just have to make sure that you or a team of
you keep it updated, and act like a bridge between the Facebook
presence and the "old" channels like mailing list and wiki. I hope of
course it will not be necessary to join Facebook in order to
participate or stay up to date with the Ubuntu activities in
Switzerland.

Yes, and let's hope it can bring more people to participate in Ubuntu
and free software activities.
