Well, Tad just posted an introduction to the comp.{sources,binaries}.amiga
groups in .misc that included 3 ftp sites. The former keeper of the FAQ
postings, Edwin Hoogerbeets (not a prayer I spelled that right) has gone
on to other things. He promised to email the existing FAQ material to
Ferry de Jong, <ferry@chorus.fr>, the monitor of newly created group
comp.sys.amiga,introduction, who will be maintaining the FAQs. I'm not
sure where the longer list of ftp sites has gone, though one was posted
last month early, I think.

All of that material should find a home in .introduction. I hope those
who take the time to craft tutorial articles will also target them to
.introduction.  Note that that group is _not_ moderated, merely looked
after by a monitor, as is .emulations.

Kent, the man from xanth.
