Re: Take a peek at....

.----- On some day recently, AF posted:
| Yes, that looks good. And the download times are quite
| good too. I appreciate your effort! And of course I got
| some suggestions :)
| 
| 1. Don't use the term FAQ where it doesn't fit. "Frequently
|    Asked Questions" is one thing and "Things We Want To Make
|    Very Clear" is an entirely different thing
|    - and TWWTMVC sounds much better anyway.
| 
| 2. "alt.ascii-art Documents List" is either obsolete now or it
|    should be changed to a list of mirror sites.
| 
| 3. Copyright FAQ by Pete Casso? What the ...?!
| 
| Now, all we need is a bunch of people creating mirror sites.
| 
'--------------------------------
1. Yes, I was a bit unsure about what to call those things that aren't
FAQs... TWWTMVC ? hehe!
2. I just put up the current FAQ files as an example. All of the current
files will need a rewrite once a decision has been reached as to what's
happening.
3. That was something from a long, long time ago :o)

As for maintaining a list of mirror sites, I've got a database I set up for
them that can have an HTML document of links generated from it... ATM it's
only got my three mirrors in it. I'll hold off on that one -- for one thing
I don't know if I'm going to be responsible for mirror sites listing and
stuff yet!

|Martin, everything about it looks good except for the popup. How I
|loathe and despise popups!
|
|As for a copyright FAQ, I prefer this one that I found:

Ahh yes the popup... I haven't figured out yet what I have to do to rid the
page of that.
My other mirrors don't have it...

There isn't one yet, as such. Until we've decided (see other thread) on what
exactly is to be done with regards to site formatting etc it's best to hold
off on making mirrors. And yes, I know I've already made three but I made
those before the dicussion started! ;o)

See the other thread...
