As you have probably noticed, I have now completed both the Windows FAQ and 
Windows Programmer FAQ conversions to WinHelp format (a Windows Programming
Tools FAQ will follow later).  The WinHelp files are substantially larger,
though, than the original text-based versions, and are not suited to being
read directly using your favourite newsreader.

Thus I decided that I should do a minisurvey to find out what *you* think
is the best way to handle the new format.  Please take 2 minutes of your
time, fill out the form below, and send it to tomh@wes.on.ca; I will take
your wishes into account when determining the future direction of the FAQ!
