Max size for a FAQ ?

I am now almost done with the first version of my FAQ and the thing is
a bit over 60K. There migh be a problem when a post grows over 64K... but
I don't really know.

Anyway since the text will probably quickly grow to 100K or so, what is
the maximum recommended size for a multipart FAQ ?

I'd probably go with a bit less that 32K per post. What size do you use ?

There's another problem I have which is the newsgroup selection : I list
the available operating systems for Intel PCs. I can't post in every
newsgroup that deals with one of the OS I mention as that would mean
posting to 20+ groups. On the other hand, just posting to
comp.sys.ibm.pc.misc seems to be a bit limited...

Fred (who hopes that future updates will be easier to handle :) ).
