I have recently had to take over the job of maintaing order (and the FAQ) for alt.humour.best-of-usenet. I noticed that there is anold copy of the FAQ at the ftp site rtfm.mit.edu, and would like to know how one goes about submitting an updated version. Secondly, (and this may be related), I am posting the FAQ to ahbou and ahbou.d as I assume these to be the two related groups; are there news.* groups to which I should also be posting this FAQ? Unfortunately the old maintainer is now incognito and unavailable for questions, else I would ask them. Furthermore, I do not desire to join the mailing-list, as I have not time for more mail (more mail!) and the FAQ was left to me in pretty good shape. Thank you to any of you who can assist me in these areas. Shane H.W. Travis | Unquestionably, there is progress.
