FWIW, I made an attempt to update this document a few years back and
concluded that it was pretty much hopeless.  What is there is
ancient...what do you replace it with?  There is a vast amount of
content out there that will go obsolete just as quickly.

I'm certainly not going to stand in the way of anybody who wants to
update and maintain this document, though; I'd love to be proven wrong
on its value.

Well, we do still put out an edition every Thursday, so it's not
entirely wrong...

Thanks,
