Hey y'all, We're really working to get a FAQ put together! :-, The FAQ will be patterned after the LUGNET site structure, and has room for Q+A on anything and everything you'd expect to see on LUGNET. If you have any questions for the FAQ -- or (...) (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq, lugnet.announce)

(...) Oh waitaminute. I think I see where the confusion is. I'm not suggesting that the header text from the included file be inserted into the including file. What I mean to say is that during processing of the files, when the including file (...) (25 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

Todd, Jacob, all, I've been putting together an intro message (kind of a call-to-arms :-) announcing the re-start of the FAQ and a list of Q+A posted to lugnet.faq . But have we determined the scope of the FAQ? How all-encompassing will it be? Is it (...) (25 years ago, 27-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)
