We have a committee of members who have been diligently working on
creating these summaries for many moons now.  We're calling them FAQs,
but they are really lengthy essays on topics such as Wizarding World
Economy, Spells & Charms, Hogwarts, Neville Longbottom, Mythological
Creatures, etc.

Status?  About 60% of them have been written.  We have technical types
who now have scheduled time to do the HTML'ing & uploading the documents
to a website.  We really do expect that the completed ones will be
available later this month (right, Steve?  Paul?).  I realize we've been
promising this to everyone since last fall, but those of us writing the
FAQs don't have the time (or in many cases the technical know-how) to
take the completed essays and get them on the web.  We've now
coordinated all that, and Lexicon Steve promises we are on his schedule
starting next week. Hopefully, we will have a goodly portion of our FAQs
ready for viewing by July 4th.  :::crosses fingers and toes:::

For the Wand Mix-Up, please take a look at the VFAQs (Very Frequently
Asked Questions):
