Just as a general note, it's often the case that documentation efforts
by developers change into development efforts by developers to make a
Great Documentation Tool. The drawback of this is that developers much
rather work on Great Tools than on documentation, meaning the
documentation isn't written as the tool isn't quite perfect yet.
That's not a personal criticism, Peter; I know you've been writing
plenty of documentation. It's just one of the things we as a project
should watch out for. So, by all means, Danny, just focus on writing the
FAQ text and we'll worry about a documentation tool for it later.

Martijn
