- In an effort to bring valuable information to the masses, and as a
- service to motivated information compilers, a member of CRAM can help
- others unfamiliar with Usenet `publish' their documents for
- widespread dissemination via the FAQ structure, and act as a
- `sponsor' knowledgable in the submissions process. This document is
- being distributed under this arrangement.
-
- We have found these compilations tend to appear on various mailing
- lists and are valuable enough to deserve wider distribution. If you
- know of an existing compilation of Internet information that is not
- currently a FAQ, please contact us and we may `sponsor' it. The
- benefits to the author include:
-
- - use of the existing FAQ infrastructure for distribution:
- - automated mail server service
- - FTP archival
- - automated posting
-
- - a far wider audience that can improve the quality, accuracy, and
- coverage of the document enormously through email feedback
-
- - potential professional inquiries for the use of your document in
- other settings, such as newsletters, books, etc.
-
- - with us as your sponsor, we will also take care of the
- technicalities in the proper format of the posted version and
- updating procedures, leaving you free of the `overhead' to focus on
- the basic updates alone
-
- The choice of who we `sponsor' is entirely arbitrary. You always have
- the option of handling the submission process yourself. See the FAQ
- submission guidelines FAQ in news.answers.
