Thanks Alexander :)
That was exactly my intentions when creating the document. Plus I want to
make the FAQ searchable (i am working that piece)

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.
