A couple of weeks ago I promised to set up a FAQ system in Daisy. I've
now done this.
Creating a FAQ
==============
There is a "FAQ" document Type. This is a simple document in which the
document title should be the question and the content should be the answer.
To illustrate things I have copied the "installation faqs" from
http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/faq/faq-install.html into individual FAQ
documents, for example:
http://cocoon.zones.apache.org/daisy/documentation/799.html?branch=1&language=1
http://cocoon.zones.apache.org/daisy/documentation/806.html?branch=1&language=1
<snip the details/>

So, if people like this, we should migrate all FAQs from the legacy docs
into this format, as well as including relevant ones from the Wiki.

Thanks for setting this up. I have some reservations though about
copying the FAQs from the legacy docs. I haven't read them all but a lot
of them have become either incorrect or irrelevant. One of the reasons
for the "new documentation" is that we can leave behind the outdated
information.
Yes, that makes sense, I'm a little behind with Cocoon, so do not have
the knowledge to decide what goes in and what stays out.
I'd also like to change the
query in the navigation to a query in a document: having the long
questions in the navigation doesn't make sense I think.

I only really threw these in as examples. Later I realised I had not
done an example of creating a complete FAQ document (i.e. with questions
& answers) only of indexes (bth navigation and in document).
None daisy users should be aware that the query system in Daisy is
superb and very flexible. If folk want something better than is
currently in place then just ask how (or do it).
Similar to the FAQ doctype, I'd also like to set up a "GlosarryItem"
doctype which can be used to provide short explanations of
Cocoon-specific terms (such as sitemap, subsitemap, FOM, flowscript,
blocks, real blocks, ...).
