Who is Vicki Rosenzweig and why is she keeper of this FAQ?
A. Vicki Rosenzweig (vr@redbird.org) is a long-time fan who has been reading this group for a while and decided a FAQ might be useful, or at least amusing. Fandom being somewhat anarchic, she gets to do the work because she’s willing. If she screws up badly enough, someone else might take over. If she screws up but not too badly, please let her know, preferably with useful specifics. (“You really ought to have something about X, here’s some draft text” is better than “How could you omit X, you fool!”) The questions here were contributed by various r.a.sf.f posters; I’ve dropped some that seemed irrelevant (meaning they’re not frequently asked and I couldn’t come up with amusing answers) as well as a few that are basic intro-to-netnews stuff. I do have opinions on a variety of subjects, like most posters to this newsgroup; I’ve tried to keep them down to a dull roar in this FAQ.
