I'd be willing to put together and maintain an FAQ posting if people
think we need one.

- Do we really need an FAQ?  
- If we do, are there any other volunteers to maintain the list, review
  it or contribute the Q's & A's?
- What FAQs should be on the list?
- Tim O'Reilly said that if there's an FAQ, I could use some material
  from the Nutshell MH & xmh book if people think that's a good idea.
  Taking that even farther, I could add section-number references to the
  book for more-detailed info "[also see section 6.3]."  But, assuming we
  have an FAQ, I don't think it should be grossly commercial.  Comments?

If you want to discuss this, I guess you should post or mail to the list.
I'll summarize comments & votes that people mail straight to me.
