Well, I put a disclaimer at the top of that FAQ last night, telling how
ancient it is. Many people prefer forums, I do prefer mailing lists, though
aside from harder core users, they seem to have gone out of favor. The
Yahoo lists, as I've said, were once very active, and very useful. One
reason I created that FAQ in the first place was because many of its
questions would show up many times a month.
