Right. At least let me put in a bit that says 'Since you get this by CD-ROM it's
probably not the latest version. Please contact me if you wan't a copy of the
latest version of this FAQ.' Or something like that.
I'll probably add something like that in the future, but since they took the
FAQ's 'a week ago' it too late. Could't they at least have said 'in a week' so I
got a chance?
