One other question about the posted-monthly mini-FAQ: Would someone be able to do the actual automated monthly posting (to the main Squeak list), if I provide the FAQ text? Or are there free services available that will do this?
It should be a pretty trivial task for someone with access to a Unix or other server to set up a cron job to do this, but I don't happen to have access to one at the moment.
Thanks,

I do. A whole rack full of them :-). Say what - there's FTP running on the box that runs the mailing lists, I can give you an account so you can drop the text that's posted monthly in there. Drop me a mail if you want to go that way.

Doug,
We could probably setup something at Squeakland.org. Mike?!

Sure. Just need to know what, where and when. :-)

Thanks Andreas and Michael for the offer. (sorry for not responding sooner, recently got back from vacation)
Cees also offered the use of his server in another message... I may take him up on it first since he's handling the squeakfoundation.org domain, and it might be good for the mini-FAQ to be sent from that domain. (Not that that wouldn't be possible for you to set up too... I could certainly go either way.)
In any case, as I'm working on the mini-FAQ I'll post it to this list a couple of times to get some feedback, before we start posting it monthly to the main list. This is very much a spare-time project for me, but hopefully it should be possible to get something done in a few weeks.

No problem - I was in Germany myself when I wrote the message ;-)

Whatever is best. I don't really care where it's coming from as long as it *is* coming ;-)

I'm looking forward to seeing it!
