With help from my good buddy Neil Munday, who set up space on his server and allowed me again to use his splendid Open Source FAQ writing software, I have worked the last couple of days on a new BOINC FAQ. This site is not to replace the Wiki, it\'s merely a tool for you who help, who look for help and who are just wondering about where to find help.

It\'s a small collection of FAQs at this moment, but I didn\'t see the need to first make it complete before putting it on the web. It can and will be added to over the next couple of weeks, if not years.

The link to it is http://boincfaq.mundayweb.com/index.php

I am on the look out for co-writers.
If you have any expertise in writing FAQs, if you can explain things in a reasonably easy way, please contact me and I\'ll see to it you get a moderator account.

My email address can be found under the About option in the top right of the screen.

The email address is also there if you want anything added, changed, replaced or just want to talk to me. :-)

No more English FAQ writers needed. Dex, Jorden, mo.v, Neil and Ozzfan write the English FAQs. For the moment these are enough.

John Keck has volunteered to be the English Proof Reader/Editor.

But we can still use some German and other language FAQ writers.
Cori, Dotsch, Hermann and Jakob Creutzfeld will translate the English->German FAQs and write the new German ones. If you want to be part of that team, please contact me.

I haven\'t got a definitive German Proof Reader/Editor yet.

Dutch FAQs will come as well, written and translated by Jorden. (that\'s me ;))
But even here I could use help.

Question for you all... What are you missing from the FAQs that you want added?
Easy question, difficult to answer perhaps. :-)
