Is there an FAQ for this newsgroup?
Last update I had heard was from John Kasupski about 3 1/2 years ago.
In response to suggestions by other rec.radio.shortwave readers that an
update of Ralph Brandi's original version could be useful, he loudly and
forcefully insisted that he was the only author of such an FAQ, and no
other person should get involved.
No such updated FAQ beyond an initial, and incomplete, draft was
presented, along with forceful reminders from him that no one else
should get involved. =A0Has anything been heard from him, or any other
replacement maintainer, since then?

Paul W. Schleck,
The Rec.Radio.Shortwave FAQ Issue
-by- John Kasupski

[...]
Is There a "FAQ" for the 'Rec.Radio.Shortwave'
NewsGroup ? -well- Yes and No or Maybe So...
.
Honestly What Good Is A "FAQ" If No One Reads It ?
.
More Importantly : What Good Is A "FAQ"
If No One Follows It ?
.
and that is something to think about ~ RHF

RHF,
Thank you for your reply. I can see that you are one of the more
knowledgeable and helpful posters here on rec.radio.shortwave. The
readership definitely owes you a debt of gratitude.
While an FAQ wouldn't be noticed and read by all, getting it current and
on a regular posting schedule could make it more visible. An FAQ might
not be followed by everyone, but might be useful to provide
justification for abuse complaints. It may also serve as a good
baseline for a charter for the eventual moderated shortwave radio
newsgroup.
Are there any objections to my suggestion that the 2008 attempt to
update Ralph Brandi's original FAQ documents has been abandoned (with
the replacement author's links long since broken from an expired
Internet domain name) and the project is more or less "up-for-grabs" to
any motivated and sincere volunteer?
