Hello.

Quoting from mathew (Tue Sep 27 15:57:28 1994):

Please undestand that the Mime RFC isn't mandatory. The only RFC
you should obey is the rfc822, no other mail extension is manda-
tory on the Internet.

Moreover, I think the FAQ Maintainer's duty is to make informa-
tion accessible, not nicely MIME encoded, if MIME encoding means
difficulty.

I plan to make a FAQ in html. This means I will maintain the html
version *too*, not the html version *only*.

Bye,
