It looks like quite a few FAQ maintainers have written their own scripts.
Since requests for these scripts come up frequently, we should find
a place to collect these scripts (my suggestion would be a directory
ftp://rtfm.mit.edu:/pub/faq-maintainers/scripts/) so every FAQ maintainer
can try them and pick the one that's best suited for his/her needs.

With best regards,
