On another list, I recently posted a list of topics in the archives so that
newcomers could at least know they were there.
I sugggested to that list's owner that we provide something of the sort to
each new person signing on, so that they'd have an idea of what ground had
already been largely covered. I realized this could be in a FAQ, but it
seems to me simpler to include it in the introductory e-mail to new
subscribers.
