	To me it sounds like a GREAT idea. I am a newcomer to the
newgroup although I have been programming games for a _long_
while, and I would really enjoy having a comprehensive FAQ list
(from which I am sure I could take lots of hints). I would also
love to share what I know to contribute to it.
	How to distribute it? Hmm.... I guess the obvious answer is 
to post it once every week or so in the newgroup. E-mail would
be nice but surely more time consuming. FTP... well, that'd be
OK too... but where?

	Anyway, if there's anything I can do to make that FAQ list
just drop me some e-mail and I'll be glad to help.
