>We need the FAQs, IMSNHO.
Alain: It will undoubtedly be a valuable contribution
to our collaboration. On behalf of FreeCard, thank
you.
>Mark: But, the archives are NOT so valuable
>without SUMMARY postings.
Alain: In my opinion, the ideal place for summarizing
where we are at (and such) would be our web-site.
Accessible to everyone, even non-members. Better
interface (multimedia) than e-mail (plain-text). No
redundant (summary) posts to the List.
>Mark: As we talk on a topic area, someone, hopefully

>the comments pour in.
Alain: This would indeed be wonderful.
>Mark: Streamlined summary posts will help build our
>knowledge base. And, as they are posted here, they
>might get further refinement.
Alain: Either way is OK with me. People could post
further refinements and comments on any summarized
aspect of our collaboration. It is not critical
whether these summaries are e-mailed, or web-paged, or
both.
>Mark: PLEASE: let's post summary posts to this list
>on all topics of merit.
Alain: Good suggestion.
>Mark: The summary posting habit was part of
>the internet culture years ago.
Alain: I was not aware of that bit of Web-lore.
>Mark: PS: More info to come from me in the future
>-- but I'm not ready yet for prime time.....
Alain: I know the feeling. Even in my 'free' time, I
am running around like crazy, never quite getting as
much done as I would like.
