|I just found out about this place:

|ftp://rtfm.mit.edu/pub/usenet-by-hierarchy/

|Apparently it's a place where they keep "official" FAQ files for
|newsgroups.
|
|I looked closer at it and found directories for all the ascii art
|newsgroups I know about:
|
|alt.ascii-art
|alt.ascii-art.animation
|alt.binaries.pictures.ascii
|rec.arts.ascii
|
|but they were empty. :(
|
|How about trying to get that place to keep copies of our various FAQs?

'--------------------------
Well, I don`t think it would be good for my MiniFAQ, as I tend to amend that
whenever info stumbles my way --- it would probably get out of date quite
quickly,
(BTW... don`t rely on it's 'Last Modified' date... I often forget to update
it!)
The 'proper' FAQ would be good though.... It doesn`t change very often.
