I was thinking that he probably meant that the FAQ duplicates much
of the information in the release/install doc that he first mentioned.

And much of it is probably seen a third time in the handbook.

I was thinking of looking all three over and seeing if there was any
way of having just a Handbook chapter that could be put in place of
the release/install doc.  But I've barely seen any of them for a long
time.
