A FAQ maintainer? They had on LFS and it worked pretty well. The only
drawback was the same that makes current vehicles less useful: as some
folks won't search archives, others won't search a FAQ, some won't check
the forum(s).

Then the FAQ maintainer issues the refrain from that old song "Please
Mr. Custer (I don't wanna go)", "What am I doing here?" and moves on.

*But* that shouldn't stop us from trying.
