Introduction
-----------------
Hello everyone.  This the first, initial release of the Street Fighter
3 FAQ.  I'll be updating this as soon as information becomes
available.  I'll soon be adding in strategies, combos, strengths, and
weaknesses and possibly other information.  But for now, this will
serve merely as a reference for each character's moves.

Mailing List
-----------------
I will be starting up a mailing list for anyone who wants to be on it.
Joining the mail list has many advantages; you'll be the first to
receive the newest version of the FAQ (I'm only going to post this to
alt.games.sf2 periodically), you'll get information direct from Capcom
on new developments, you'll have a moderated, open forum so you can
discuss Street Fighter 3 information with peers etc...  Email
[email protected] if you are interested in joining the SF3 FAQ
Mailing List.  In the subject line put SF3 FAQ Mailing List, in the
body put "Join youremailaddresshere," without the quotes.
