 I just printed and bound a copy of the FAQ, and started 
 looking through it as print-out and/or with a browser.
 By the time I hit "if you are in a hurry" (I was) I hit a
 very buggy bit.
 The link to "Table of Contents" is actually to "Top" -- way
 above the table of contents.  Additionally, the HTML source
 uses enormously wide lines which is OK if it 100% works and
 users never need to view source, but....

 The links to "Program Index" and "Topic Index" are funny.
 They don't work in Netscape4; I don't think it likes spaces
 in names.  In Internet Exploder they work but Back doesn't
 work with local names, it goes "back" to the top of the file; 
 I believe this is a known bug in Exploder. This means you can't 
 go to these names and back in any common browser.

 Just to make the maintainers' life fun :->
