okay.  what can i do to help?  is there a to-do list, or is it already done?

should we hook this up to 'perldoc -q'?  unless someone else is working on
it, i'll write the script.

and where does all of the tools you used live?  should we put those in CVS?
i created a bin directory in the perlfaq repository and put a couple of my
tools in there.

some near term things i wanted:

   * most recent perlfaq at a stable URL (rather than a link to a viewcvs page)
   * a search facility

some short term things:

   * a structured way to give feedback 
   * a way to ask "did you find this answer helpful"
   * a list of alternate resources in case the faq didn't help

long term:

   * a way to score search results by collected helpfulness data 
   * a list of alternate resources on a per-question basis (i.e. additional reading)
