It has been noted that the "notes" url is unmemorable. The current url
for the notes:
http://www.jibbering.com/faq/faq_notes/faq_notes.html

It was proposed to provide a better URL for the notes. The proposed
path would be:- /faq/notes/ - defaulting to index.html.


Not important. You have better things to do. There is no need to type
the Notes URL at all; users should bookmark it and the FAQ.


The faq and notes should be portable to another server. This is more easily facilitated by using relative paths.

The contributions page needs fixing. There is a mistake in the closures article that needs fixing.

Anyway, it is only necessary to put javascript faq notes in a
browser address bar. I get 16e6 hits, with the right one first. One
early hit is a CLJ wiki, at <http://www.cljwiki.org/>.

Especially not important when you add the Notes Index to the FAQ, as
discussed before.


The notes index page is linked from the faq.

"For additional explanation and detail relating to some aspects of the FAQ, please see the FAQ Notes. "

I do not agree that this index page should be included on the FAQ. This would make the TOC excessively long.

Instead, I believe the notes should instead be linked at the top, as it is, and throughout, where relevant (as it is).


Don't let Lahn anywhere near it.


I do not plan to provide access to Jim's server to anyone; that is up to Jim to decide.

All personal feelings aside, I do not have a good reason not to accept assistance from anyone. I have not gotten to respond to those comments of the suggestion to use mod_rewrite, but I will.

All right enough, I am out of here now. Time to go appreciate the great weather.
