Good idea. I'm adding a FAQ page, I can put it on that.

Alas $DAYJOB clarified yesterday that that A) I don't get this week off
and that B) I'm to do GPS software and nothing else (explicitly
including "not toybox") until futher notice. So I'm unlikely to get said
FAQ updated much this week. :P

The downside of having a mainly telecommuting job straddling tokyo and
canada is that if it goes septic and starts _forbidding_ you from
spending your time on anything but Endless Crisis (now in month 6!), it
can be a bit hard to tell when "not work time" is. (My current theory is
"weekends".)
