Rec.arts.manga Frequently Asked Questions Lists

FAQ: Frequently Asked Question.  A question which is frequently asked
by new (or casual) users of a newsgroup.  In order to increase the
Signal-to-Noise ratio, some newsgroups have a person in charge of
posting a monthly list of FAQs and the correct answers.  The Manga
FAQL consists of four postings (hopefully) covering most things
new rec.arts.manga users look for:
1) An introduction to the newsgroup and its slang.
2) Answers to common questions.
3) Manga Resources, both electronic and commercial.
4) Recommendations for good manga.

This list is posted here the first week of every month and is
also available via ftp from the Rutgers Anime ftp site on
remus.rutgers.edu in pub/manga/faq
