Geir, Do you think it might be easier to use Wiki as storage for all FAQs like that for now? I mean, not all of those who help find FAQ entries have ever checked out the website and would be willing to make patches to a FAQ.xml page. Wiki is easier to use when we're accumulating info. We could then select the most typical and/or persistent issues and make them appear on the website. (I remember your proposal on having 2 FAQs: Wiki + website page).
