A liar is a person who says one thing and does another.  You have stated 
your public support for me as FAQ maintainer – *regardless* where the FAQ 
may be hosted (and I have contacted both Jim Ley and you several times via 
e-mail, and suggested alternatives, and got no response at all).  The record 
shows.  Now that because no alternative was left I did what was expected of 
me in the way I did it, and within the last year I have done work with the 
help of contributors, you have not been and you are not supporting me, and 
you have been caught saying that this work does not exist.  You are a liar.

A fraudster is a person who cheats others into giving them things for 
purposes where those things are not used or required for those purposes.  
You have asked at first that a FAQ maintainer be funded (I believe the 
figure was around US$ 500).  I know from experience that FAQ maintanence 
does not require funds, it just requires free time.  You would have been a 
fraudster.

A thief is a person who takes the property of others without asking.  I have 
invested considerable time and other resources into making the FAQ for 
comp.lang.javascript what it is now (see the changelog).  The parts that 
have not been contributed by others are my work.  The parts that have been 
contributed by others belong to them.  You are suggesting to take those 
parts without even asking me or them.  If you go through with that, you will 
be a thief.

As simple as that.
