FAQ - any volunteers?

Anyone feel like volunteering to take charge of the FAQ for this group?

It seems that we have a lot of FAQs that keep appearing, usually preceeded
by "I tried to find a FAQ, but ..." or "this is probably a FAQ ..."

I would rather not volunteer because:
	(a) I only know enough postscript to be dangerous
	(b) I don't have much time.

On the other hand, I would be willing to try to put something together
if we couldn't find any sucker - er, kind soul to take charge.

The last FAQ I have was posted 23 Jan 1992 and was being maintained by
Ken (shiva@well.sf.ca.us).  I don't think I'd have the time to
officially keep this list (nor do I know enough PostScript), but I
wouldn't mind helping.  If you want this old version as a starting
point, let me know.

I volunteer to go thru the hoops of registering it and doing the posting,
but I don't have the time to put it together or doing any ongoing
maintenance.  If someone wants to do the putting together (possibly
including the existing obsolete one), and do further editting, this
would work well.

Besides, I probably know even less postscript than you... ;-)

I guess I'll volunteer, if Ken is willing to hand over the reins.  If 
anybody feels strongly that truth and justice demand that the FAQ stay
out of the biased hands of Adobe, let me know -- I'll let you do the work
instead :-).
