Re: i thought.... At Last, A Solution

Then what if we then suggested changing the footer to: Official FAQ ( http://www.faqts.com ) PHP Resource List ( http://www.php.net/resources.php ) PHP General Mailing List ( http://www.php.net/ ) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net I think php.net should officially endorse http://www.faqts.com/knowledge-base/index.phtml/fid/51/lang/en as the lists Official FAQ, and maintain/support something like http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=php-general&m=94925395815382&w=2 on php.net for Official resource list Maybe someone with some ascii art talent could even make the footer look cool like the mysql list signature. I think that a redesign of the mailing list footer would probably be welcomed, and in my opinion would indeed curb this recent flood of redundant questions from being posted. Probably 60% of the questions posted today can be answered on www.faqts.com Suggestions?
