Proposal: Let's Update The FAQ For This NG
Question:
As mentioned i am willing to register and pay for the domainname. It is great that Don can host the site. (or if Don wants to register it also, i can pay him the fee back, we can arrange these details outside the newsgroup) This way all the costs do not come to one person. If we agree to setup the website, maybe it is a good idea to plan some kind of meeting, maybe thru chat (irc) or something, so we can "talk" realtime about the idea’s. If we plan some kind of meeting, please keep in mind the time difference between US and Europe..:-) And what is the idea, sinusitisfaq.com? Happy Eastern!

I’m not knowledgeable about ways to autopost to Usenet NGs. Is this method any good: http://www.faqs.org/faq-maintainers/mail-archive/2001/Jan/0015.html > I willing to host a site by either of the names mentioned.
I don’t really have a preference for the name. Maybe we can take a vote? > I could host the existing FAQ and let Larry and Andires and you update it via > ftp or FrontPage or whatever…..
I don’t have FrontPage. I guess I can ftp. — Steven L.

I do not know but Larry Fletcher is already doing a great job of autoposting the FAQ reularly so we could just ask him if he can continue to do that. >I don’t really have a preference for the name. Maybe we can take a vote?
Would the question, then, be,: Which should be used as a name for a web site containing the FAQ for this newsgroup, sinusitis.tv or sinusitisfaq.com (or suggest another name)? Should we hold a formal vote or just ask for followups? Please organize it if you can….. >> I could host the existing FAQ and let Larry and Andires and you update it via >> ftp or FrontPage or whatever….. >I don’t have FrontPage. I guess I can ftp.
I guess we should just go with ftp. Regards, Don

sinusitisfaq.com is great too, no problem with that. As far as i know, is there no alt.support.sinusitis foundation or something, who can be the owner of a domain name. If i am wrong, please correct me on this. So therefor i am willing to be the owner of the domainname. But if anyone has another idea about the ownership, please respond. I do not care if i am the owner, i find this idea just so good that i am willing to donate a domainname for a site. My idea for now would be then, that i register the domain anyway, if later somebody else (or something else) wants to be the legal owner, i have no problem with that. It can be trusted on that i will not take the domainname away at any time, or do not pay for the registering fee. About the maintaining, what do you mean by that? As i mention before, i do not have the skills to build a website from ground zero, i am an expert in telecom systems. But, what i also do in my job, i maintain a website for our partners where they can download software, documentation, faq, etc. But we do this with a toolkit in which we can change the content, add content, create navigation etc. All web-based. So if there would be some kind of interface like that available, i can do something with that. Maintaining as in: read mail, overview/guard a forum as an operator, etc, no problem afcourse. I gues we can do a lot of things together with a group of volunteers, in which everybody will recieve a task or something. Andries
Response:
Stephen (and others please comment too), I think you are coordinating this – you may as well, anyway, if you will be the main FAQ author. What do you think should be done about a web site? Andries made a proposal and Larry needs a new site. I willing to host a site by either of the names mentioned. I could host the existing FAQ and let Larry and Andires and you update it via ftp or FrontPage or whatever….. I am willing to pay all costs or if Andries wants to pay the initial registration, that’s fine too. Thanks, Don

Hi Don, Ok, no problem. I can change the DNS servers then to yours, so you can make the entry’s in your own DNS-servers. Then you have all the control about it. But also when we use the DNS servers of register.com, i can change everything by webinterface, so no delay there. But i agree it is easyer if you can do that yourself. I will wait for another week before registering anything….:-) Andries

Great! By the way I see that sinusitisfaq.com is avaiable too. Personally I usually use Look Communications/ OpenSRS as registar but I do not care. I know Register.com is popular. If anyone has any objection to Andries registering a new domain on behalf of this group, or any comments in fact, please post. I imagine we need at least somef comments to legitimize it. Andries, who would you put as the owner of the domain? Yourself? Yourself in trust for members of the Usenet Newsgroup alt.support.sinusitis? Are you volunteering to maintain the site also? Thanks!

Yes indeed. You know, it may be worthwhile to just deal with these most frequent most frequent questions first. . It could be a supplement to the original FAQ unbtil such time as it is ready for the main role….. – Hide quoted text — Show quoted text ->If we turned this list plus helpful answers into a website, I bet we >would get a lot of hits. :-) >– Steven L.

Not a bad idea. Let’s see how many more "most frequent frequently asked questions" we can come up with over the next week or so, so we don’t leave out something important. Then we can go over the list and prioritize them. — Steven L.

Wonderful, Andreas! Your help is most appreciated. Now if we could only find somebody who knows how to design an attractive-looking website, we’d truly be in business. I know how to create websites, but I lack that certain artistic sense that makes a website look sexy. — Steven L.

I also lack artistic ability,so although I can host web sites, I am not the best person to design them.

I am also not good at designing websites….. So cannot help on that part. Don: very good that you can host a website, perfect. If we want, i can register a domain, and i can set the DNS servers to your servers. I always register thru www.register.com, maybe you know them.

Response:
Designing a website is actually a lot easier than you think. Anyone who has MS Publisher already has a template to do so. Also, most host sites have templates of their own as part of the tools for their users. You add the text and pictures and click some buttons and your site is online. I have two business sites done for me by a graphic artist, but I can do the non-flash, bare bones sites. Once you choose your host, make sure they have a template and if you still need help, let me know and I’ll see if I can assist you. To give it the look you’re seeking, you’ll want to look for stock photo’s and there are several sites out there that allow you to use their photo’s for free. Just do a google search for: free stock photo and you’ll see what I mean. Keep a record of where and when you got them to avoid any problems in the future. I guess my question to you all is, since Andries has offered to pay for the domain name, who is paying the monthly fee to have this hosted somewhere? Or do you have a free page or two provided by your Internet provider? Good luck, this is a worthy and worthwhile project. "Andries" <andr…@REMOVEFORNOSPAMinn.nl> wrote in message

Sure I will email you the DNS servers. Oh I guess you are thinking of using their DNS servers. Well either way except if we use their DNS servers then it can be harder to update them in case of a sudden change so really I prefer to use mine. But I would suggest you wait a week or so to be sure we have consensus. Thanks!

OK. Maybe we ought to divide up the last few past years and search the Google archive to refresh our memories as to what questions seemed to have been asked frequently. The two most commonly asked questions that we must get the FAQ to deal with seem to be: "I’ve tried X! I’ve tried Y! I’ve tried Z! And I’m still sick! What else is there that I could try?" "I’ve got {list of symptoms}. My doctor isn’t sure what this could be. Could it be sinusitis?" — Steven L.

True. Actually there are lots- "My doctor recommends surgery – should I have it?" "How do I pick the best sinus surgeon?" "Should I tell my doctor not to reduce my turbinates when he is performing the surgery?" "Has anyone tried Sinoxxxxxx spray which I found on a web site?" etc. etc.

We also get the following variants: "I can’t seem to find any good doctors in my area.

Here are some more: "My CT scan shows clear, but I still have sinusitis symptoms. What’s going on?" "My mucus is {opaque white, yellowish, yellow, day-glo orange-yellow, green, brown, bloody, etc.}. Does this color indicate sinusitis?" "Can you have sinusitis even if the mucus is clear?"

Very good initiative! If i can help in any way, just let me know. I am willing to donate a domain name, if the idea is to setup a website for this FAQ/newsgroup. For example, sinusitis.tv is stil available, i am willing to buy it and donate it to the newsgroup for a website. If needed, i can also setup a web- and e-mailserver to run this domain name (with FTP acces for the maintainers for full control of the content), but that will take me some time. I think it is very good to help eachother this way, i know from the people around me that there are much more people who suffer from this then we know.

I do web hosting so I can offer the hosting free if desired. It is inside a major colocation facility on several backbones. I can set it up nay time on any domain.

Response:
The alt.support.sinusitis FAQ has not been updated in over 3 years and so it is badly in need of revision. Version 5.1, published 2001, is auto-posted here periodically. It was maintained by Reid Goldsborough. But since he has left this NG, apparently he has stopped updating it since then. http://www.google.com/groups?q=group:alt.support.sinusitis+insubject:… I propose that those of us now on this NG try to update the FAQ ourselves, in some kind of group effort. (It’s certainly too big a job for me to do alone.) Even though it may require even more effort, I also propose that we change its overall format too. Currently, as you can see, this "Frequently Asked Questions List" is actually formatted like a tutorial on sinusitis–there are few actual *questions* there and I think that limits its usefulness to the newbie posters who come to this NG seeking answers to their questions. I think the FAQ would be more useful as a true list of Frequently Asked Questions–the actual questions that we see are most frequently asked on this NG. That doesn’t mean its current content is worthless by any means. Rather, it means that the content should be reformatted so as to act as answers to the many questions that we have seen people post. That would also help bound its size. As a short tutorial, it cannot hope to approach the comprehensiveness of all the good books and websites on sinusitis that already exist. Rather, it should provide just that information that the most commonly asked questions need answers to. To get things started, I could act as coordinator (at least at first), and use my Web searching skills (such as they are) to try to hunt things down on the Internet. But even there I may need help, since I am planning to be doing some travel over the next 6 months or so and I won’t always be around on the Internet. So if folks are interested, please let me know on this NG. If so, then we can proceed further. Step One is, of course, to review the current version 5.1 of the FAQ and see what can be preserved, revised, or tossed out as obsolete. Step Two is for us to reach consensus on whether, as I propose, the FAQ should be reformatted into a true Frequently Asked *Questions* list. What happens next depends on the answer to Step Two. — Steven L.

Sure. >Step Two is for us to reach consensus on whether, as I propose, the FAQ >should be reformatted into a true Frequently Asked *Questions* list.
I agree. Actually we could start on Step 2 in parallel by starting to draft the questions and a rough outline of proposed answers. We could continue to post the "old FAQ’ until the ‘new FAQ’ is ready.
