Great idea. Perhaps the draft FAQ I started could be moved? http://people.debian.org/~bap/dfsg-faq.html (Just added this question to it.) It is in pretty good shape, with contributions from many people, and I think represents a rough consensus view with no glaring flaws. I'd welcome its being taken over by the Debian www team, or whatever. -- Barak A. Pearlmutter <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Hamilton Institute, NUI Maynooth, Co.
