Can someone explain to me how the FAQ approval software works? It is not
that I want to circumvent it, but my FAQ is being rejected for reasons I
cannot fathom, and the folks at news-answers-request@MIT.EDU are too busy
to attend to my case.
The situation is that the FAQ has a valid "Approved:" line, and was
accepted regularly. It ceased being accepted on January 1, 2000, and it
only recently hit me that if the FAQ approval software rejects any changes
in the header, even insignificant ones, then the following millenium bug
might have been the cause of my rejection:
< Date: 15 Dec 99 06:11:08 GMT
---
> Date: 1 Jan 100 06:11:04 GMT
^^^
This date "100" continued until I upgraded from
Posted-By: auto-faq 3.2.1.4
to
Posted-By: auto-faq 3.3.1 beta (Perl 5.005)
Would this change in the header cause the FAQ to be rejected? In other
words, could it be that it was first rejected because of the "100" date,
and then rejected because the "Posted-By:" text has changed?
Thanks for any insights. :-j
PS. Incidentally, my FAQ passes the FAQ-checker.
