Modified: faq.raw

* Changed variable for default gnupg.org http location from $hGPG
  to $hGPGHTTP and update instances of variable throughout FAQ in
  introduction area and sections 1.1, 2.1 and 2.2

* Added section 1.4 - What conventions are used in this FAQ?
  + unices vs. win32 (with hyperlink (<Rhomedir>) to section 4.18 for
    example
  + gpg.conf vs. options (with hyperlink (<Roptions>) to section 5.8
    to note name change

* Corrected section 2.2 - Changed ftp URL (both display and link URLs)
  from "ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/pub/gcrypt" to ftp://ftp.gnupg.org/gcrypt/,
  and the display URL (not the actual link URL, it's correct) of the http
  URL from "http://www.gnupg.org/mirror.html" to
 "http://www.gnupg.org/mirrors.html"

* Included variable ($hVERSION) for easier updating of latest gpg
  version when referenced (as in section 2.2)

* Included variable ($hGPGFTP) for default gnupg.org ftp location
  (ftp://ftp.gnupg.org) for use in sections 2.2 and 4.16

* Corrected section 3.1 visual display of link from
  "http://www.gnupg.org/gnupg.html#supsys" to
  "http://www.gnupg.org/backend.html#supsys"

* Edited sections 3.1, 3.2, 5.2 to include $hGPGHTTP variable

* Corrected section 3.2 - Word typo ("avoided" was "avoiced").

* Corrected / edited section 3.3 -
  + corrected link: ftp://ftp.gnupg.dk/pub/contrib-dk/
    for idea.c.gz, idea.c.gz.sig, ideadll.zip, ideadll.zip.sig
  + edited section to include all files and added
    ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf info

* Edited section 4.6 - As this section deals with loosing a public key,
  I added a paragraph containing a hyperlink to the end of section 4.21
  ("I still have my secret key, but lost my public key..."). The
  paragraph reads: "If you've lost your public key and need to recreate
  it instead for continued use with your secret key, you may be able to
  use gpgsplit as detailed in question <Rgpgsplit>."

* Edited section 4.15 - Added paragraph below table on GPGrelay, an
  application for MUAs that lack OpenPGP (rfc2015) support to. "Users of
  Win32 MUAs that lack OpenPGP support may look into using GPGrelay
  <http://http://gpgrelay.sourceforge.net>, a small email-relaying
  server that uses GnuPG to enable many email clients to send and
  receive emails that conform to PGP-MIME (RFC 2015)."
  suggested by: Andreas John <aj@tesla.inka.de>

* Corrected section 4.16 - Incorportated Werner's URL fix for gpgme FTP
  location to synchronize local CVS with released FAQ version 1.5.8.

  suggested by: Christian Reis <kiko@async.com.br>

  signatures?"
  by: David Shaw <dshaw@jabberwocky.com>

* Added section 4.21 - "I still have my secret key, but lost my public
  key. What can I do?"
  by: Werner Koch <wk@gnupg.org>

* Added section 4.22 - "Clearsigned messages sent from my web-mail
  account have an invalid signature. Why?"
  by: David Scribner <dscribner@bigfoot.com>

* Edited / Corrected section 5.8 - Changed question from "I just
  installed the most recent version of GnuPG and don't have a
  ~/.gnupg/options file. Is this missing from the installation?" to
  "GnuPG no longer installs a ~/.gnupg/options file. Is it missing?"
  + Added "An existing options file can be renamed to gpg.conf for
    users upgrading, or receiving the message that the "old default
    options file" is ignored (occurs if both a gpg.conf and an
    options file are found)." to the end of the paragraph.
  + Corrected ~/.gnupg/gpg.conf (was ~/.gnupg/conf)

* Added section 5.9 - "How to you export GnuPG keys for use with PGP?"
