Does this mean that the FAQs with "John Walton" out to the side are 
being thrown open to other FAQ writers?  <g>  I sort of assume "yes."

Here's what we have then --

Ron Weasley -- Barb will take over updating/maintaining
Ginny Weasley -- Catherine & Mary Ann should duke it out or collaborate
Sirius Black -- Dicentra has spoken loudly for this one!  <g>
The Trio -- Barb suggested this so "go for it!"

STILL OPEN AFAIK:

British Education System (was John)
Hogwarts -- update/maintain
Mysteries & Inconsistencies -- update/maintain
Predictions -- update/maintain
Clothing (was John)
Spells & Charms (Neil has some notes to pass on)
Animal Characters -- update/maintain
Dursley Family -- update/maintain
Harry Potter (Simon has a draft that can be picked up & continued)
Weasley Family -- update/maintain
Lord Voldemort -- update/maintain
Audio Versions (was John)
Fan Clubs
Fanfiction -- update/maintain
HP Humor
Movie

Ebony and Heidi have still not indicated if they are working on the ones 
originally assigned to them, so any of their FAQs may join the "Open & 
Available" list soon I suppose.  :--)

Thanks for joining up everyone -- I'm confident we can get this project 
moving along again.

FYI -- These will be renamed "Fantastic Posts & Where to Find Them" even 
though this doesn't shorten to a catchy acronym.  <g>

They are not intended to be limited to factual reporting but rather 
should summarize & set out all the various questions, theories & ideas 
relating to each topic that the group has discussed.  A newbie who 
wonders if we've ever noticed that Snape has vampire-like descriptions 
ought to be able to go to the Snape FAQ & find a section on this 
question & say "Ah, I see this isn't a *new* question after all ... but 
based on what's here, I think I've got a new angle that I can post 
about."  At least, this has always been my intent.

Techie things -- I'll have lots more thoughts but wondered if anyone has 
interest in being in charge of doing the coding to link cited messages 
directly to the messages ... on the existing FAQs that is.  Any techie 
volunteers?  Anyone...anyone?  :--)
