Sorry that I abandoned that project (well, technically, it is
still on my TODO list so it is not actually abandoned).

Major problems of putting the FAQ on the wiki include:
- The size, and working out how to split it up (doable).
- The formatting (very hard to convert to wikitext).
- The duplication with some tips (awkward maintenance).

In the end, I could not think of any improvement on the current
situation of having a single text file that a keen person can
download (as pure text) and view/search within Vim.

If you wanted somewhere to host the download, perhaps the
"Files" section shown at the following could be used:
http://groups.google.com/group/vim_use

And/or, the "Pages" section could hold the html version.

Due to spam problems, we had to restrict file changes to
managers only, but there is sure to be a way to accommodate that
if you wanted.
