 Sometime back Nick B. said that much of the backlog of FAQ approval 
 request e-mails had been addressed.  I think much of it was spam. 
  
 My suggestion was that if there are tens-of-thousands of bogus mails 
 in the cue to just purge it and start over. 
  
 I am not an authority.  I am in no position of being able to do 
 anything with respect to this issue.  I am but a lowly FAQ maintainer. 
  
 That said... 
  
 My *opinion* is that if no one is responding to a FAQ maintainer's 
 last-known e-mail address and no FAQ is being posted at this time, or 
 has not posted in over a year, then its up for grabs. 
  
 My FAQ auto-posts using the automated FAQ server every 30 days and I 
 update it as necessary 1-2 time s a year. 
  
 As I see it, abandonment is a default invitation for someone else to 
 take over. 
  
 As such my suggestion wou d be to write up a FAQ, submit to the 
 auto-reviewing system and get it committed/archived. 
  
 If someone bitches after the fact, address that as necessary. 
  
 Nick runs a list server that replaces Kent Lanfield's former FAQ 
 Maintainer's list.  I believe back-dating should uncover the 
 subscription address.
