Is this _really_ what everyone's okay with?  I'm asking because once we
put the FAQ onto Wiki we:

1. no longer have authoritative FAQ - anyone can write to the FAQ
2. we have to monitor the Wiki FAQ for correctness
3. we have no user-friendly GUI/webapp for Q/A formatting, which makes
it more of a pain in the ass to contribute

If anyone has any strong opinions, please share them.  If I don't hear
anything, I'll (try to) get the jGuru FAQ XML dump and give it to
Daniel for 'wikification'.

I prefer to leverage the wiki for this type of information for a number of reasons. It is self-maintaining, not requiring a committer to take time out to commit changes and update the website. We have e-mail notification of wiki modifications and thus we already have monitoring. There are many cases when using Lucene when the answer is "it depends" (such as the filtering question that just came up). Having a wiki "whiteboard" for these scenarios allows for a broader perspective.
