Actually, I should be writing a short essay about Johannes Reuchlin (resp. a letter from him dated August 1512) for monday. Actually, this paper should have been written already. So much about my self-discipline.

I haven't decided if I should do the hard way and re-translate the given letter from Reuchlin - which is in Latin and Greek - again; as I find the translation of my university lecturer not so exciting.

Back to tech issues.

Almost two years ago, I tried to write a short press review-script in PHP for collecting press articles in a simple mysql database. I lost interest soon. After playing so much with the phpMyFAQ I think it might be possible to modify this lovely script to fit in perfectly for this purpose. I wonder if it scales good enough to keep this thing running in real world for month.

(Yeah, and I am biassed: Don't expect any impartial texts about this FAQ script. I collected several links to different FAQ systems in my dmoz.org-account and I still consider the phpMyFAQ as the most advanced one.)
