Did anyone else think of the XKCD comic on new standards? https://xkcd.com/927/ https://xkcd.com/927/

  I immediately thought of this, but dismissed it after reading that 2 of the largest FAQs were being merged. This is made less important by the fact that neither of those FAQs are going offline, but at least it gives the impression that this will be replacing 2 and not just creating a third.

    What will happen to the other FAQs...? It seems like if they're pretty much entirely incorporated into the official FAQ, they could (and maybe should) be replaced by links to and/or mirrors of the official FAQ. [At least in the case of Marshall Cline's FAQ, I've always found it somewhat confusingly organized, although the actual content was pretty good once you managed to find what you were looking for. My (brief!) initial impression is that this official FAQ seems better organized, at least...]

      They say that the previous FAQs will be replaced by links: > Both Marshall and Bjarne will be updating their FAQs to either forward or link to the new FAQ on a per-FAQ level.
