Hrm...I'm wondering if once a month would really be worthwhile?  

I'm hoping to catch the folks as they join the newsgroup, before they
post.

The email I'm thinking of would have a constant subject, and so would be
easily filterable by most mail clients. Set up the rule to delete the
email upon arrival and you'll never be bothered by it again.

Oops, I think the subject of this thread was misleading.

I'm happy to volunteer as a FAQ maintainer if that's needed, but what
I'm really aiming for here is simply to provide a nudge in the right
direction.  A reminder of other places to look (the existing FAQ, Palm's
and Palm Source's sites, Ben's site, Google, etc).

On a different topic (the FAQ), I like a wiki solution that allows lots
of people to continue to contribute even after the initial person no
longer has the time to work on the FAQ.

Ben, are you serious about setting that up?
