>> The FAQ is in existence since Jan 2003. > if people have any recent questions about > things... they're not going to find answers to > them in there.... Point taken. > many people come here (Yahoogroups) because they want human > answers to their particular questions, not sterile FAQ entries Again, point taken, but at the same time i don't want the fact to be missed that asking 12000+ human people questions like 'how do i convert midi to audio' *without* having gone over the FAQ at least once is plain outright rude. And don't forget that the FAQ have *of course* been answered by human beings, and those answers have been collected, condensed, shaped by human beings as well.
