For questions with non-obviously placed answers, the FAQ should look
like:

Q: How do I ...
A: See The Manual section X.Y.Z

As soon as you put in anything else than just pointers at the documentation,
things go awry, my favorite example is the FreeBSD Handbook chapter on disks,
and the FreeBSD FAQ entry "How do I move my installation to my new disk".

Frequently Asked Questions doesn't mean Unstructured Bits Of Info.

That's just my .02.
