In a way, this has already started; some answers are now just
pointers to other wiki pages or to the docs.
I think getting rid of the FAQ completely is not necessarily a good
idea; it seems useful as a collection of interesting questions. Moving
the contents to new pages is probably OK. Also, as the answers mature
on the Wiki, perhaps it'd be possible to move them to the SGML docs (and
reduce the Wiki answer to just a pointer).
