Should this go in the FAQ list?  :-)

The FAQ list is a list of Frequently Asked Questions.  (At first, I assumed it
meant F***ing A**hole Questions.)  The full list is posted at the first of each
month, and an abridged list is posted in the middle of each month.  You can
search for the word "Frequent" to locate these.
 
I have no idea what an FAW is.

In the contexts I have seen 'FAW' used in this newsgroup, it was clear
that 'FAQ' was intended.  Since Q and W are next to each other on standard 
keyboards, 'FAW' is probably a typo.
