 Just noting that as per yet another recent major change in that FAQ,
some type of notice would be much appreciated that these changes
had taken place.  As is, there has yet to be any "ownership"
arreibured to the last "big" change, other than the included bit
of advertising for some hardware appliance ....

  In fact, the Forum FAQ includes the content (pointers) right
back to the www.spamcop.net FAQ ... but that still doesn't
show any indication that the 'official' FAQ has been changed.
(Dang it, yet another reminder that one of the first links in the
Forum FAQ points to a www.spamcop.net entry that gor
whacked.)

Funny, there was just a bit of a discussion 'over there' that has
some confusion over the 24 / 48 hour thing ...
