Stones FAQ - A Plea

Postby Xenu » Tue Oct 12, 2004 4:12 pm

OK, here's the deal.

Yeah, I know that the Stones version FAQ is around two years old at this point. Yeah, I know I keep promising updates that never appear.

Here's the deal.

Luke and I wrote the majority of that FAQ during a period where we weren't very busy. Since that point, we have both been *very* busy.

There's also the problem that neither of us has any FAQ writing experience. I don't know how to take a document like that and make it look pretty in .txt format--y'know, give it a table of contents or anything--let alone translate it to HTML, which was our original intention.

Then there's the problem that editing a massive document like that and keeping everything kosher and referentially-integral is another problem entirely.

Thus: might there be a crew of people out there willing to help us finally get an update out? I know what needs to be updated. I just can't at this point undertake the busy-work of actually DOING this.

PS: If nobody here will help, I will be forced to solicit at sh.tv.

I'm not a Stones maniac, so I really can't help much with content, though I would be more than happy to help with HTML-ization. I sorta do that for a living.
