An excellent idea.
Having searched through the manual several times looking for where to actually
put the modification
sheets when we receive them I strongly support the concept of an good master
index.
I also add pointers to the tips
published in the newsletters into my master manual so that I can reference them
during the build process and an index
would certainly help here.
