+$Revision: 1.2 $, $Date: 2004/05/24 21:43:16 $, for xindy version 2.2
+<P><HR>
+<EM> The <SF>xindy</SF> FAQ presents answers to questions that are not
+adequately covered in other parts of the documentation, or are hard to
+find. The FAQ has been constructed from the <EM><SF>xindy</SF> by Topic</EM>
+manual. The most up-to-date version of this FAQ can be obtained from
+the <SF>xindy</SF> homepage at
+<A HREF="http://www.xindy.org/doc/faq.html">http://www.xindy.org/doc/faq.html</A>.
+<p>
+While the content of this document is still valid, it has not been
+updated in years and doesn't describe new developments. In particular,
+it doesn't mention the many languages that are supported by Thomas
+Henlich's <EM>make-rules</EM> system, and also doesn't know anything about
+the new commands that got introduced with the "LaTeX Companion
+Release". So, caveat. We don't want to throw out the document, though,
+since it still contains lots of useful information that's not
+available elsewhere.</EM>
