I would like to think of it more as “refactored” than “composed”.  AISB, I 
have no intention of rewriting the whole thing unless absolutely necessary, 
and then only if I am not doing it on my own.

I am not so sure about that.

I know what you mean :)

As you probably know, I am always in favor of “prosper” :)  And so, 
following Patricia's suggestion and your ongoing encouragement I have 
mirrored the FAQ just to see what would be possible.


(You may skip ahead from here to the more important part.)

To my initial surprise, mirroring the FAQ also downloaded the script that 
generates the HTML version of the FAQ, process.wsf (which indicates a 
security leak, but good for me).  Meaning that, while the FAQ is XML-based 
indeed, for content generation it uses an XML parser hand-written in 
Microsoft JScript, dependent on the Windows Script Host.

I commend Scott's approach of using an ECMAScript implementation for the 
generation of the FAQ, and wish him good luck there.  Building something is 
a good approach, maybe the key ingredient, to understanding its foundation. 
But one should always strive to use the right tool for the right job, and I 
think it is more important for the target audience of a FAQ that there is a 
FAQ than how that FAQ is being created.  I also think that a FAQ of a Usenet 
newsgroup should not be discussed on the Web, like on GitHub.

    [This may be not obvious to those who have learned of
     comp.lang.javascript only via Google Groups, but know that this
     newsgroup, and Usenet, is _not_ located on the Web nor has it much to
     do with the Internet.  It is only mirrored there, for example by
     Google.  See also <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet>.]

IMHO, instead of rewriting the FAQ from scratch it is better to follow an 
iterative approach here: make the best use of what we already have and 
improve that step by step.  What we already have is XML data.  I have been 
developing Web sites using an XML-based content management system 
(Weblication) for the last two years, so I know well what is possible with 
XML data.

An often overlooked advantage of XML is that – by contrast e. g. to 
Markdown – it is not strictly a text format; it is a platform-independent, 
*structured* *data* format (that also accounts for its often rightfully 
disliked verbosity).  The advantage of such a data format, if used properly, 
is that presentation of data is virtually independent of the stored data.

The FAQ parser already makes use of that by generating the table of contents 
from the headings of the sections; probably so does the section-posting 
script (which I have not found yet).  But those do not really make use of 
the versatility and platform-independence of XML, which probably also 
accounts for the formatting problems observed with the regularly posted 
plain-text versions of FAQ sections.  Also the XML source of the FAQ is not 
written as readable as it could be, which contributes to the impression of 
some people that an XML-based FAQ would not be easy to maintain.

(Here endeth the lecture ;-))


To those ends, I have replaced that hand-written XML parser with a much less 
complex, equivalent¹ XSLT stylesheet, which it is used in a rather short PHP 
script.  It was (and is going to be) an interesting exercise for me.  The 
preliminary result of that can be seen here:

<http://PointedEars.de/scripts/faq/cljs/>

    [There is the possibility to have shorter URLs by redirection, like
     <http://PointedEars.de/faq/>
     → <http://PointedEars.de/scripts/faq/cljs/>.
     I have chosen the “scripts/faq/” path because it already contains a
     JavaScript-FAQ in German that I had written for SELFHTML.DE, which
     hosts a Web forum that I was the moderator of from 2001 to 2006 CE.]

The same XSLT stylesheet can be adapted to generate a well-formatted
plain-text version of this FAQ or its sections, too.

In order to keep track of changes, I have created another Subversion (SVN) 
repository on my site, which can be browsed via

<http://PointedEars.de/websvn/listing.php?repname=FAQs&path=%2Ftrunk%2Fcljs%2F&#af3ba590656341a4eba7a67fe4037dbd0>

I can set up read and/or write access with SVN clients to the cljs/ path via 
<http://PointedEars.de/svn/FAQs/trunk/cljs/>.  (I have to thank Christoph 
'Mehdorn' Weber for that.)

    [It is possible to use git as well.  But I am not yet as experienced
     with git as I am with SVN, and I would prefer to make the move to git
     (which is a more contributor-friendly) for all my repositories, when
     I am confident that I am not losing any data and it agrees with
     my software development.]

Here is how I would like this to work for a start:

- Glaringly obvious errors I will fix by myself.  (But you are welcome to
  point them out to me anyway.  See below.)

- In order to keep the number of discussions in the newsgroup on this FAQ 
  to a minimum (like someone here said so aptly, “Let's discuss
  JavaScript!”), I am going to

  * search the newsgroup for <FAQENTRY> sections, and past postings as
    free time permits;

  * read follow-ups to FAQ postings;

  * welcome your suggestions for improvement via e-mail; to my Reply-To
    address if possible, to my From address if the Reply-To address is not
    feasible for you;

  * select a collection of suggestions for discussion in the newsgroup, on
    a regular basis if possible.  I will hear your opinions, discuss those
    suggestions (and only those) with you in public, and finally make an
    informed decision based on those discussions.  (Because given the length
    of and diversity in this thread already, I seriously doubt it will be
    possible to do this in a reasonable way based on group consensus, let
    alone a majority vote; AFAIK, previous maintainers also never operated
    on such a basis.  Sorry.)

- There is the possibility, and it may become a necessity, to set up a
  bugtracker for suggestions instead.  (Bugzilla would be my first choice
  then, particularly because it is Perl-based and I do not know it as well
  as I would like to.  Sometime in the future JSX is going to need a
  bugtracker, too.)

- Although the copyright statement of the current FAQ is ambiguous to say
  the least, as Patricia pointed out, I have no intention of infringing
  copyright.  Those who would like their contributions to be removed from
  that FAQ may request that.  However, the burden of proof lies with the
  person requesting removal of content.

- I would appreciate it if this “FAQ for comp.lang.javascript” would become
  the “comp.lang.javascript FAQ” later.

- Probably I have forgotten something ;-)

As always, constructive comments are welcome.
