The FAQ could be maintained in the Wiki nevertheless. This way you skip
the "whom do I need to ask to get something added and has (s)he the time
to do it" hurdle. Actually, the most recent FAQ _is_ in the Wiki AFAIK.
And I don't see a reason to take it out.

If somebody thinks, the Wiki FAQ is not well-structured - go ahead,
change the structure!

I think the big advantage of maintainig the FAQ in the Wiki is that
people can add new information _very quickly_.

Bye, Tino.
