If you guys agree, I'd like to work on the FAQ. I like the idea of the offline
generated FAQ, but OTOH a wiki or a more collaborative framework seem to be the
way to go. For instance, I really like the scheme cookbook:

http://schemecookbook.org/

the wiki is twiki, not a scheme based one. And since there is not a very
advanced wiki written in common lisp (developing wikis is boring), I don't think
there is a problem in using tools written in other languages.

so my proposal is to move the faq to a domain like www.lispfaq.com and setup a
tool to host it. how about:

* phpmyfaq
  http://www.phpmyfaq.de/

* twiki

* ikiwiki
  http://ikiwiki.info/

ikiwiki seems to be *really* interesting because it can work on-line like a
regular wiki but also off-line, using git to update and synchronize the pages.

what do you guys think?
