Although it's not bad > to have one ;-)) We never discussed the merits of having *a* FAQ, simply the merits of keeping our *current* FAQ. I agree fully with John that a FAQ is a useful resource for answering topical questions but, as John also pointed, an unmaintained FAQ is nothing better than a home for outdated [mis]information and not very useful. Until we find a FAQ maintainer who truly takes it seriously, as none of our last few FAQ maintainers have done, we need to kill it. Once we can find a motivated FAQ coordinator who truly understands what the FAQ's all about and has time to do it justice, we can bring it back. Jordan
