I have been going throught the messages for the Harry FAQ, but they are taking a lot longer than anticipated. I have completed notes for all my other FAQ's and hope to get these finished in a the next couple of weeks. I have worked up until about message 6000 on E-groups (when I returned home a few weeks back), but the group has been a little busy since then (have we really broken the 8000 message barrier?)!

I am away until next Wednesday and then away for the weekend following that. After that time I have a week in which I have no plans, so hopefully can get most of my FAQ stuff done then (I wonder how many times I have said that before?).

I really am not sure if I can spare much time to deal with any more FAQ's.
A couple of questions:
Steve is doing a lot of work for his lexicon on the timeline - do we need an FAQ on top of this?
I have only heard PS read by Fry so cannot go near this FAQ!

I will think about the rest soon, but need to be infront of my own computer to work out which I could plausably do!


What are the possibilities on asking a couple of the other members if they would be happy to work on a FAQ each? It might be an option for ones such as Audio versions if we can find someone who has listened to all of them, or the predictions where they only have to go through a limited number of messages and then comment yes/no!



More thoughts in the new year and hopefully some completed FAQ's, after this brief question!


Also do we want someone to take a copy of the FAQ (welcome message to the group), that Melanie hosts on her website, and the GoF schedule and host them elsewhere, so they can be updated as needed?
