The current FAQ is on rubygarden.org.  As of this moment it's down...
due to some memory-hog problems, but we're working on it.

There's also an old FAQ on rubycentral.com.  I've tried to contact the
registrants of that address, in the hope of getting it transferred to
Ruby Central (it's currently registered with Pearson publishing), but
have had no luck by phone or email.

Unfortunately, this has caused confusion, since lots of links to the
old FAQ are still in circulation.

And, without doubt, the content needs some attention anyway.  There's
a FAQ suggestion facility, but since it's down right now, it's not
available.  Stay tuned....
