FAQ Topic - Why do some posts have <FAQENTRYin them ?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

If a poster feels that the question they are answering should be
covered in the FAQ, placing <FAQENTRYin your post lets the FAQ
robot collect the messages for easy review and inclusion. A Draft Proposal
for the FAQ is requested and appreciated.

The <FAQENTRYshould not be used in posts except in
conjunction with a suggestion/proposal for the FAQ. It should
also not be literally quoted in replies, instead it should be
partly obscured as, e.g. <FAQ**TRYor similar.
===
Postings such as this are automatically sent once a day. Their
goal is to answer repeated questions, and to offer the content to
the community for continuous evaluation/improvement. The complete
comp.lang.javascript FAQ is at http://jibbering.com/faq/index.html.
The FAQ workers are a group of volunteers.

You can request it, but, you will get the same response as you got in
the thread you refer to. Read it, and find the parts where I explained
by thoughts/processes on an FAQENTRY post, and you will soon realize why
I won't change the wording.
