SGML is great stuff, and I use it all the time. However, when I asked on docs for information on submitting a new FAQ, I got told "just send a PR". I couldn't find anything obvious on how to do it in SGML, other than instructions for joining the doc project. That was distinctly overkill for adding a single FAQ entry; especially when compared to things like the Python FAQ Wizard. So - give me a pointers to a DTD I can install for psgml to use and the primer for formatting, as well as a place to grab the source for just the FAQ, and I'll mark up my text, add it and send a diff.
