FAQ crew,
I've gathered 23 questions for the FAQ so far (1), and stuffed them into a
holding patteren until the header format is closer to being finalized.
In the mean time:
I feel that we should allow an Originator header, to give credit towards
those who pose questions for the FAQ. Without the questions, the FAQ would
just be a FA. :-P
The header should be optional, for the cases where a previously-existing FAQ
is assimilated, or other cases where this data was not kept. It should
probably follow the style of the Revision header.
e.g. (from an actual FAQ item! :-):
<FILE NAME="/faq/uncategorized/016.en.faq">
Subject: What are "Samsonite" Legos?
Location: /uncategorized/
Content-Language: en
Originator: G. Crisp, 1999-01-27
Revision: Jasper Janssen, 1999-01-27
<P>It appears Samsonite (of briefcase fame) has imported/made Lego
products in the US under licence before TLG actually got out there.
lesse, they just had a 25-yr asnniversary of Real Lego, so that makes
to 73, probably from somewhere in the 60s.

Cheers,

| Another header...? I want to be able to make context-specific notes on the FAQ items, which will not be exposed in the final output. I'm thinking of something like a Comment: header, which the parser will discard during processing. Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 28-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)

| Todd, I'm geared to start snarfing the RTL Auction & Shipping FAQ, to start giving form to the LUGNET FAQ. (LUGFAQ? :-) I am torn between two data formats, though it should be relatively easy to switch from one to the other. I think that whatever (...) (26 years ago, 23-Apr-99, to lugnet.faq)
