There IS an FRP mailing list.  It used to be moderated by Chuqui the Plaid
but due to the silly requirements at NSC that you work for a living, he
had to give it up.  The current moderator, and his address, were posted
in the latest "net.announce.newusers" postings about mailing lists.

I strongly suggest that y'all re-subscribe to that group and read the
stuff in it, at least once in a while.  It really is worthwhile even
though it is all "old hat".
