OK (although I am in principle opposed to anything that creates more
work for me).  This should probably be something like latest/docs with
two tar files, one containing the User's Guide and API Reference, and
the other containing the FAQ.  I say that because the former hardly
ever changes, while the latter would change every week or so.

But this is not a high priority for me.  I would rather work on
getting the FAQ into better shape *before* hundreds (thousands?) of
copies get mirrored and installed all over the place.

Regards,
David
