Here we are, trundling along in our own bumbling way. Now we are
promised one of these mails every month to keep us on our toes.
Each mail would have lines longer than the Channel tunnel! What
does this achieve? What has brought about this mail? Have we had
naughty users recently?

In particular, the FAQ on the Debian Wiki is said to be in need of
updating. You know what is usually said about this? It's a wiki;
the comment maker should get stuck into altering it.
