I'll remove the reference to Facebook - that's not in use right now.
Creating an account just sets up a separate directory for your files,
that's all.

Files are stored on my own VPS server - A debian system with only one
account holder - me. Server is in Canada.

No charges, ever, it's just a way for me to 'give back' to Lilypond, that's
all.

Cheers,
Mike
