i have just installed a new version of the uk tex faq.
this version is not a finished product (a bug was discovered in the
html files that tex distributions use, so *something* had to be done in
short order -- so i have released a development snapshot). i believe
that it's self consistent, however.
Users may view the package's catalogue entry at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/Catalogue/uk-tex-faq.html
or browse the package's directory at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/help/uk-tex-faq/
or, of course, they can browse the Web version at
http://www.tex.ac.uk/faq
The catalogue entry will change (somewhat) overnight tonight.
