It is very general, including items like "How Does One Pronounce Linux?".
And most of the serious questions are answered by "See the XYZ-HOWTO".
Unfortunately only the title is given, not a (relative) link.
The submitted document is very different.
- it is very short and subjective set of questions
- it is distribution dependent
- it does not confuse the reader with background or theory
IMHO it makes little sense for TLDP to include it as a separate document.
- directly competing with vendor manuals is bound to lose
- political correctness will eventually lead to a series of 'translated'
documents
covering all other distributions
- people with different interests will request a similar document for their
personal
hot topics
In the end the TOC for the category 'Micro-FAQ' will reach a size that
defeats its purpose.
OTOH size and modularity of the submitted document could fit well into a
Wiki.
