Some of the HOWTOs are absurdly out-of-date, while others are extremely good. Wouldn't it be possible to introduce a rule that if a HOWTO has not been modified for say a year (and the modification need only consist of a change in the date) then it is removed from the archive, or as you say put in an "obsolete" directory? I'd suggest too that every HOWTO should have a date in the heading, and an email address for the author. Most do have this, but some don't. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
