This is the statement I'm planning to put in the s.c.j FAQ/Reading Lists (I've
genericized it for here):

Subject: Copyright Notice

The (name your) FAQ is not to be reproduced for commercial use unless the
party reproducing the FAQ agrees to the following:

1) They will contact the FAQ maintainer to obtain the latest version for
their collection.
2) They will provide the FAQ maintainer with information on what collection
the copy of the FAQ is in, and how that collection may be obtained.
3) They will agree, in writing, that the FAQ will be included in the
collection without modification, and that acknowledgements of
contributors to the FAQ remain in the FAQ.
4) They will agree, in writing, that the collection including the FAQ will be
distributed on either a non-profit basis, or have some percentage of
profit donated to charity.

To support this, this FAQ is Compilation Copyright (c) 1993,1994 by (the FAQ
maintainer) on behalf of (insert newsgroup name).
