It's always easier to criticize, than to do. If you do something,
you're bound to make mistakes. If you never do anything, you can rest
assured that you're not a fault. So, to get a taste of my own medicine,

Awesome! Okay, Dimi, you are in charge.
You've got Keith and Tom to help you out.
We have a request from Jer for SGML; my guess
is that if you can get the SGML together,
he can simply include it inside a clean
looking web site.
If you need somewhere to host the result
of the generated SGML,

You should ask Newman to grant you access in case a normal user account
on the FOM isn't able to delete the FAQ part.

My vision for the FAQ is a hand edited main
FAQ with the current FAQ-o-matic being
pushed to a secondary role.
I request that the new FAQ be done in the same was as the Docs, with SGML
