Um, I want to second this sentiment.  I know y'all put a lot of work
into the old FAQ, but this is a working idea.  I am not sure on how
much the server can hold, but can we place the faqs we replace into a
"before OoP area" so people can see how HP fandon theories evolve from
book to book?  I personally find it as facinating how the minds of HP
fans shift over time as I do the actual text.  It is as much a part of
the HP fandom history, in my opinion.

But then again, we all like to improve over time, so maybe when we
find one that needs to be greatly updating, we can ask the previous
composers if they want the task to rework it.  It just seems polite to
me.  But, as Abigail well put, we are writting for the group.

Oh and I finally found a faq I would not mind helping (since Harry
seems to be well covered).  If Porphyria and Amanda don't mind, can I
join you in Snape world?  He is not my favorite character, well
outside of MD, but it would be interesting to learn more about him. 
Anyway, where do I sign up?
