I don't believe that either TPEL or dhtml have demonstrated their 
suitability for custodianship of the faq.

I note that TPEL is saying dhtml can't use TPEL's contributions because 
TPEL retains copyright of them. This IMO disqualifies TPEL from any role 
in maintaining the faq, because TPEL has shown that he will on a whim 
refuse to let others publish his faq contributions.

I'm not happy with dhtml's initial approach, he seemed to want 
crowdfunding to pay for the domain, the hosting, the dsl line and the 
(presumably brand new) laptop he would use to maintain the faq - that 
just sounded like he was expecting us to crowdfund his new laptop and dsl 
connection, which are easily the most expensive components of that 
arrangement.

Perhaps the solution is to offer the faq to stackoverflow to fold in to 
their database of questions and answers, and post pointers to 
stackoverflow in future.
