CSS FAQ Maintenance & RFC
[Posted on behalf of the CSS FAQ Maintenance Team]
As many of you will be aware, the comp.sys.sinclair FAQ is currently under review. In order to determine how best to proceed with future updates, please spend a few minutes answering the following questions:
1) As a *general rule*, do you find the current content of the FAQ to be accurate?
2) Do you find the current style and layout of the FAQ adequate, or would you prefer a new design?
3) Do you use the Offline version of the FAQ? Should the Offline version be "plain", with an enhanced version (same content) available Online?
4) Which sections of the FAQ do you find most useful, most of the time?
5) Which sections of the FAQ do you feel are unnecessary, or need significant work to become useful?
6) Would you prefer that a smaller, completely overhauled FAQ be released initially, with existing and updated/expanded content progressively added as it is verified?
If so, which sections do you believe are the most important to have available immediately?
7) Are commonly used peripherals (Interface I, Interface II, ZX Printer, ZX Microdrives, Kempston Joystick/Printer interfaces, etc. etc.) adequately covered, or should more information be included with links where necessary to external resources?
8) Are non-Sinclair/Amstrad machines adequately covered (Timex variants, etc.) ?
9) Should a more distinct section be created and maintained for current developments (SE Basic, Spectrum SE, Sprinter, etc.) including a summary of ongoing hardware projects and current upgrades, with appropriate links?
10) Which site do you usually visit to read the FAQ?
Along with your reply, please include your browser type and version number.
Please reply directly to cssfaq@worldofspectrum.org if possible - this will make it easier to consolidate responses. Those of you who maintain a mirror of the FAQ will be contacted directly and asked to provide additional information.
