The format won't make it impossible to convert back to plain ASCII. It
will, however, make it possible to incorporate into a larger, searchable,
multimedia FAQ.
The main rationale behind the FAQ format is to have a common source base
from which different publishing formats can be acheived. For the purposes
of LUGNET, these publishing formats include HTML and plain text.
Thanks for your effort!
