Actually, the NSA was directed to publish commonly requested
FOIA documents in electronic format under guidelines established
by the Clinton Administration. Other E-FOIA sites include those
of the FBI and the Joint Chiefs, and all were established in
1997 shortly after the Presidential directive was issued. For
the agencies there is some hope that the public's curiosity will
answered without additional requests, but as the article notes
that hasn't been the case.
