What about rtl's FAQ? Should a modified (and updated) copy for

I think a LUGNET faq would be a better idea - separate from the
r.t.l faq.
Ya, that's what I really meant. Ya, that's it...
I just meant that we should "borrow" a lot of rtl's FAQ content.

Hmm, but the text of the RTL FAQ is copyrighted by its owner, isn't it?

Also, I wonder if the reason it wasn't kept up-to-date is because it covers
such a wide spectrum of stuff.  Hmmmmmm.  Hmmmmm.  Hmm.

Say,

Might it be better if, over time, there arose more specialized FAQ's for
each ng, as appropriate...?  That makes less work for the owner/maintainer
of any given FAQ, and easier/safer for someone to hand off a FAQ to someone
else if it becomes too involved for their schedule.  (Someone might be the
maintainer of 3 FAQ's and want to hand of 1 of them and keep 2.)  It also
pre-separates major content portions in a way well-suited to reference on
web pages, yet in a way that they can be combined into one larger document
by special scripts.  A little coordination would be necessary to ensure a
consistent format, but that shouldn't be too tough...

Just a thought...
