I have the rec.arts.comics "FAQ" (officially titled Welcome to r.a.c.)
split up into seven parts. The first part is an introduction to the
r.a.c. hierarchy and associated alt. groups; essentially a where to read
and post. It also has a pointer to news.announce.newusers.

Part 2 is a glossary of net, comics, and r.a.c. specific terms.

Part 3 is the FAQ. Both 2 and 3 have an index at the top of items and
questions, with new ones denoted by a * next to them, and changed answers
or definitions by a +.

Part 4 is netiquette, both general and r.a.c. specific.

Part 5 is FTP and recently WWW addresses for comics related files, including
an overview of what's available at the two main r.a.c. FTP sites.

Part 6 are e-mail addresses for file maintainers who don't put their
stuff on FTP, and intros to and r.a.c. specific locations of IRC and
MUD/MUSH resources.

Part 7 is descriptions and subscription information about comics related
mailing lists.

Basically a functional split, making it pretty easy to recall what
update goes where (parts 1 and 4 are rarely updated, 2 fairly rarely,
the rest usually every month).
