I'm a terrible programmer but not half bad at writing. Wouldn't mind
making some small contribution to FreeBSD. Is there a need for some help
on the manual? Who would I contact?

Thx

Well that's just silliness... if you have contributions to the FAQ, file
PR's at least. That way the issue can be addressed in real terms
(instead of, "What would happen if I?").

But seriously folks, I suggested a while back that "we" reorganize the
useful information in the FAQ so that it lives in the appropriate
location in the handbook, and turn the FAQ itself into links back to the
handbook. At the time I was laughed out of court for a couple reasons,
not the least of which was resources. But we've got a pretty solid core
of doc committers nowadays, perhaps it's time to revisit this idea?
