I've got no objections to the use of parts of the Rialto FAQ for the
Merry Rose FAQ.  I do have a slight concern about maintenance, in that
changes will take extra time to propagate.  It might be better for the
Merry Rose FAQ to include a table of contents, and pointers to the Rialto
FAQ, rather than duplicating entries.  This is especially true for the
other SCA mailing lists FAQ, which is seldom the same three months in a
row.

I have a greater concern about your inability to reach me.  My real email
address hasn't changed in >5 years, and the alias I distribute (which is
included in the Rialto FAQ) hasn't changed in at least 3.  Please make
another attempt to contact me directly, and let me know what problems you
encountered.  We've been having some trouble with the campus network, and
the more documentation we can accumulate on the problems, the better the
chances of fixing them permanently.
