But more important than the format right now is just getting data together
as a big list of questions & answers.  The format discussions can go on as
a background thread.

Should I reformat the LDraw FAQ in the way you indicate
below and post it here?

[...]

For example, maybe one file for each question, formatted like so:

   Newsgroups: [list of newsgroups (wildcards permitted) that this question
                and its answer would appear in]
   Subject: [this is the question]
   Category: [named section; further modifies section implied by newsgroup]

We also need:

     Content-Language: [ISO 639 language code]

(most of the ldraw.org content is going to be translated to
several languages)

   [blank line]
   [body - this is the answer to the question]

[...]

Play well,

Jacob
