You think so? There is so much good stuff out there that I don't think
a full FAQ is needed. What is maybe needed is some kind of meta FAQ
pointing to the most interesting stuff (the stuff which we always refer
newbies to).

What is the group's opinion about this? I would volunteer to create
such a meta FAQ if there is sufficient demand. It would be based on the
list of resources I post from time to time in response to newbie
questions.

I think a list of categorized links will do the job, shouldn't be that much
work. A weekly post in this newsgroup will catch most newbie questions.
