Thank you for your comments.  However, I suspect that you've read an
old version of the FAQ, because your comments are already covered by
the latest FAQ release 2.10.

You don't really expect the FAQ to refer to a package which is only
expected to be released, do you?  The FAQ describes RSXNTDJ version
that is available from SimTel now.  When the new release is out, the
FAQ will be updated.

This is already explained in the FAQ (section 3.6), in these very
words.
