Where did that page come from?  I had never known that page existed.
But something is updating it somewhat.  Does anyone have any
information on the pages under /directory/?  Otherwise I will track
that down with the gnu.org folks.  That page is unknown to me.

Having found that other rogue page would have been a red herring for
anyone.  But here is what I expected.  If you had looked at the main
gnu.org pages they would have led you through his path.

  http://www.gnu.org/
  http://www.gnu.org/software/software.html
  http://www.gnu.org/software/textutils/textutils.html

I consider the pages under /software/*utils.html to be the main
pages.  In all of those pages for file, text, shell, you will find a
pointer to the FAQ.
