|*   Who posts the FAQ, and how can I e-mail them? (I never actually saw
|    any posting happen, I don't think.)
'-----------------
The FAQ is posted by Krogg and Colin Douthwaite
Krogg is his...@inspace.net  <-- hisname should be Krogg
Colin is cfb...@southern.co.nz

.-----------------------
|*   Who keeps a copy of the FAQ on their Web sites? As I said just
|    before I left last year, I'd like to set up a script so that
|    whenever I update the FAQ these people get e-mailed the HTML version
|    (with stuff like GeoCities advertisements and custom colours added
|    to particular copies).
'-----------------------
I know of me, Joan Stark, Veronica Karlsson and Andreas Friese.
I only have Mine and Joan Stark`s EMail address handy:
mart.atkins                spunk1111
           @                        @
            bigfoot.com              aol.com

My copy is out of date because of a few problems with the web server a
while back, and I haven`t got all of the new bits added.

.---------------------------
|*   Is rec.arts.ascii up and running again, and if so, why? Just before
|    I left last year I noticed someone volunteering to be moderator, and
|    then when I arrived this year there were some messages in it, but
|    since then it seems to have died ...
'---------------------------
It is indeed going again, but isn`t being used a lot.

.---------------------------
|*   What happened to all the spammers? They seem to have disappeared.
|    Does this mean it's safe for me to start using my real e-mail
|    address in the header?
'---------------------------
They have died down but not all gone!
DON`T use your correct address unless you like plastic 'meat' :)

.-----------------------
|*   Does anyone use alt.ascii-art.animation any more?
'-----------------------
Yes, I saw Krogg and VK in there earlier but I don`t read regularly

.-----------------------
|*   Is this leave-sigs-on/take-sigs-off debate EVER going to end?
'-----------------------
I doubt it!

.-----------------------
|*   Does `Miss Kitty' have a REALLY bad attitude, or what?
'-----------------------
Indeed she does

.-----------------------
|I would be interested in reading any suggestions for changes in the next
|version of the FAQ. At the moment I plan:
|*   updating (or not) the section explaining the demise of
|    rec.arts.ascii
|*   updating the list of Web versions of the FAQ
|*   checking all the URLs (of course).
|But I don't see anything else major which needs doing ...
'-----------------------

Just email me when the new version is ready :)

I think a bit about extended ascii and ANSI was added...
