Its a nice idea but It probably helps to have a good HOWTO on this
topic. The updated FAQ can be just a part of this. Please consider
doing this. We already a number of documents explaining NPTL external
to LDP which you can use as references
Announcement: http://lwn.net/Articles/10465/
Whitepaper: http://people.redhat.com/drepper/nptl-design.pdf
Migration: http://linuxdevices.com/articles/AT6753699732.html
Other than bringing in this material into LDP can you try and provide a
more detailed outline of what you plan to work on?

Rahul
