Mailing list archives are basically useless for the type of things
that Mike referes to. The information is much too scattered to have
a decent chance of finding anything relevant. Event if our search
engine would work (which it mostly doesn't -- whenever I've tried
to use it I get a heap of non-relevant bits, I have a _much_ better
chance with Google. htdig just sucks IMO) it's still not good
enough. What would you search for to get to the links Mike wants
to post?

A Wiki would provide a nice scratch pad for this type of info,
and when enough is entered, we can reorganize it (and promote it)
as a regular HTML page like the others. I think it brings value
(and no, I don't think it's the same as the old FOM).
