Why? We already have Chris Gammels forum.

YOU shall start picking some examples in some note, you can't expect
anyone else than you to do this for YOU. There is still some good info
in the old FAQ page form confluence. You could start rewriting that
one. And then maybe we can include that on the website as a FAQ page.

Of course it is mixed. I makes no sense to just set up a ASKBOT and
expect that to become a FAQ. It is essentially just another forum
software.
