That may be worth mentioning; but I doubt whether it's worth mentioning
or reading first.

The index needs spell-correcting for convenient search.

It isn't to me. The draft for 10.0 has this entire section re-ordered
and the spelling mistakes have been corrected.

Is the draft on-line? If it were, we could point out new errors before
they formally appear.

In FAQ-writing, IMHO it's a great mistake (possibly committed by RC) to
try to work in the background producing a finally-polished version. All
improvements should be immediately available.

Not yet.

That is the desire if I can ever manage to finish the draft document.

try to work in the background producing a finally-polished version. All
improvements should be immediately available.

Right now, it isn't even a complete document. It is a complete
re-write/re-organization of 9.xx where a lot of items get moved around,
anchors got renamed, some items got re-organized (especially the online
resources section).

When I can get a completed document (at least through Section 3), the
intentions are to go ahead and post it on-line for
comments/suggestions/corrections before moving on to Section 4. Then,
Section 4 will probably be done 3 or 4 entries at the time so I can keep
up with it instead of trying to edit/update/maintain 40-odd entries at
one time.
