Um, it's called "a situation has come up that's not really covered by
the rules. It's time to figure out how to handle it, and update the rules
for the future."
I agree with the need for rules, but it's also important to realize when
the rules don't cover the current situation. As an example, the current
situation does boil down to the FAQ not being posted often enough, with
the added fillip of attempts having been made to contact the moderator.
If this isn't covered (and "often enough" could be defined as the 90
day expire from the archives time period), seems reasonable to figure
out what's needed to cover it.

Glad to hear this. Your first reply to my message didn't indicate this.
Personally, I've no vested interest in being the one to do this, so I'd
have no problem were the news.answers team to repost the posts to
the *.answers groups rather than myself. As for the news.announce.newusers
moderator, if anyone happens to know his/her address, perhaps they should
be informed as to the situation and their input solicited as well?
