I participate in one discussion group and am the moderator of another
discussion group (relatively new one), both managed by LISTSERV's.

I maintain the FAQs for both discussion groups. The FAQs are mostly
summaries of discussions on subjects which I and others believe to be
important.

I ran into problem of condensing lots of material into useful FAQ. As
I correspond, I save the more interesting and the more valuable E-mail
messages. Once in a while, I review them and condense them and turn
them into new sections of the FAQ (or use them to enhance existing sections).

Now, since the amount of material overwhelms me, I would like to know from
anyone else who has similar FAQ building policies (i.e. FAQ being summary
of the more important discussions of the list), and who overcame the
mountains of stuff to be condensed.
Thanks,
--- Omer
