[HP4GU-FAQ] Calling more FAQ Status Reports

[Simon]

Penny: "Thanks to Simon for the FAQ status report.  Sounds like you are in
good shape!  BTW, I emphathize with the numbers of messages to trudge
through.  There were tons of messages where Hermione's name popped up, but
she was not at all the subject.  But, it was hard to devise a search that
would cover messages that discussed Hermione & weren't just a mention of her
name."

I gave up trying to search. Typing Harry into the search brings up far too
many messages to make the search viable. Especially as many of these
messages are irrelevant to my FAQs. I ended up using expanded messages (100
per screen) and scanning for key words in messages and by subject line. I do
not guarantee to have got all messages, but got most without too much
difficulty.


Penny: "I wouldn't worry much about Predictions.  We'll get more Predictions
material as time moves on anyway.  I'll be much happier to have Harry &
Voldemort FAQs than Predictions.  :--)"

Thanks. I am aiming to get those done in the next week. Then have a bit of
sleep.


Penny "Great!  Be sure to at least leave drafts of as much as you can so in
case you disappear for an extended period, we could work with your drafts."

I have uploaded my most recent drafts to the FAQ folder and added a folder
(called Simon's stuff (I think this is what I called it)) to create a backup
of the stuff I needed to bring home. In the end it did not matter as I had
enough room in the car for the computer as well, but I wasn't sure this was
going to be the case so had to assume I would be transferring to using my
parents computer (and that would have been easier by uploading/downloading
of files than finding a disc or e-mailing the files).
