The problem with an idea like that is that it takes too much manual effort for the reward involved. I wind up saving "hints" and interesting stuff that should be in such a document, but time prohibits editing all but the most important into e.g. a PR for the FAQs. Probably other people do as well. I'd be interested in brainstorming some way to share that information with others -- it might supplant the "search the mailing lists and find the one posting that actually answers the question" problem, which is, after all, fairly boring :-) I don't know. A list of pointers to email messages? A blog? A 'best-of' mailing list? Any ideas? I think something like this could really be useful for newbies and other people coming up the curve on various parts of the system. mcl
