A common problem with volunteering mirrors is, that the update frequency is often not "very reliable". Sooo - the goal for the FAQ Library is, to have servers spread all over the world mirroring the HTML-FAQs and updating themselves once a week. As the project is still in the startup phase, any suggestions and comments are welcome, preferable to comments@faqlib.com (which does NOT go to NULL ;-) One point we want to improve (as already suggested by some FAQ maintainers) is the index. Right now we only have a "by topic" index. We are working on a "by news.group.name" and a "by author" index, too. Have fun, Olaf 'Olu' Pfeiffer, maintainer of the 80C166 Microcontroller FAQ www.best.com/~olaf/olu olaf@best.com ---- Olaf 'Olu' Pfeiffer@hitex.com http://www.hitex.com [/olu] ----
