But I get much redundancy and perhaps inconsistency if I give whole author
information in every question.
Therefore I would only give some short name ("login") and collect the whole
information (forename, surname, email, homepage, quote...) in a separate
authors/users database.
ah, i didn't get that, sounds ok to me.

Please explain, what the 'key="xyz"' is for?
\TeX should be sorted under tex or tech, so there is a typo as well as sorting version

I would define keywords for searching (web version) and indexing (PDF version)
-- what does a keyword need an other description?
e.g.
<keywords>
<entry>math</entry>
<entry>formula</entry>
</keywords>
or perhaps
<keywords>
<entry lang="en">math</entry>
<entry lang="en">formula</entry>
<entry lang="de">Mathematik</entry>
<entry lang="de">Formel</entry>
</keywords>

(I'd like to make the FAQ multilingual, but I guess it's too much work...)
just go for english

would be
<author file="authors.xml">hans</author>
<editor file="authors.xml">hraban</editor>
correct?
no, more something:

<include href="authors.xml">

<author label="hans"/>
<author label="hraban"/>

saves keystrokes too - )
