Hi everyone,

Currently, the FAQ distributed with the source is much less up-to-date 
than the FAQ on the webpage, which itself is also very out-of-date.

I'm interested in working to remedy this, but I'd like to get some input 
so I have a better feel of what direction to take.

There are lots of questions in the FAQ that likely wouldn't be 
frequently asked in 2014, e.g., "How do I get Window Maker to use more 
than 16 colors on my SGI Indy Workstation?"  Should these kind of 
questions be removed entirely, or kept for historical purposes? My gut 
feeling is to get rid of them.  If people want to read the old 
questions, there's git and archive.org.

Also, it would be nice if the source and webpage FAQs were the same.  
One option that could work would be to use something like texinfo, where 
the main FAQ is written in some format that can be exported to plaintext 
for the source and html for the webpage. Maybe there's an even better 
solution?

And of course, maybe there's some more questions/answers we could add to 
the FAQ.

I'd appreciate any thoughts.  Thanks!
Doug
