Where "reasonably" means "as far as

is concerned."

I will compare the most recent versions of both and communicate the
differences by PM. I also consider restructuring the German FAQ so
that it also applies to the German ML. This will be done by splitting
it into four parts:

   1. general stuff ("do not send HTML")

   2. stuff specific to c.l.r/ruby-talk ("only send ASCII!")

   3. stuff specific to the German ML ("You may use Latin-1/9 here.")

   4. other stuff for Germans (pointers to texts in German)

The information from the English c.l.r FAQ and only that information
will then be in part 1 and 2 thereby making it easier to keep the
English version and these parts in sync.
