You'll be pleased to know that some of the changes I've made to the
FAQ and Handbook (or changes that I've folded in as part of submissions
people have asked me to review) have been the direct result of comments

he had been, we'd have lost commentary that's been instrumental in
improving part of FreeBSD.
