I wholeheartedly agree.  Please put the above info in the FAQ, including 
how to actually source-route telnet using the client.  I had to read the 
code to work it out.  Also, since this program is relevant for testing 
firewalls, perhaps it could be placed on ftp.greatcircle.com and/or 
ftp.tis.com. Anyone else volunteer?  ftp.austin.unimelb.edu.au is not the 
best connected site in the world.   (The locations should be mentioned in 
the FAQ).

As for posting the FAQ monthly or weekly, perhaps a weekly notification 
of the FAQ's location and last update time would suffice.  As well, a 
nice message from majordomo to new subscribers, urging them to read the 
FAQ would possibly help to reduce repeat questions.
