from others. I have already bought the books by Schultz and Marshall. Any
other suggested reading? Any T gurus in the Toronto area? Thanks in
dvance,  --Ray.

We don't have a FAQ AFAIK.  Would someone volunteer to be the keeper of
the FAQ.  I'll host it on one of my servers if somebody else'll write it.
Who wants to write it?  Anybody?  Jason?  Anybody?

Is there a FAQ here? Maybe there should be.

Be excellent to each other!

I've been*** out on this group for a while, and I've never seen this
FAQ posted...  It could also probably use an update.  This isn't meant as a
knock on the maintainter, rather a suggestion that the group ought to get
off its collective arses (mine included) and do some updates.  In particular
some sections (such as the hotly debated topic of substrates) could be
expanded.

Also, does this group have a charter of some sort?  I.e. a list of things
that are considered appropriate for posting, and what is considered on-topic
and off-topic?

Martin used to be a lot more visible but I haven't seen him post for
quite a while now. I know he stopped his newsletter due to other
commitments so maybe now is the time to get in touch with him and
arrange for somebody else to look after this newsgroup and see to
posting the faq regularly, etc.
