We're still going to have to monitor the mailing list, so this just adds
burden AFAICT. Does anyone really think we'll get fewer duplicate
reports or better reports with a bug tracker? I don't. I expect it'll
either not get used or get so full of cruft that it'll become unusable.

Isn't that what the /usr/share/doc/Cygwin files are for? What's the
advantage of having a FAQ section on the cygwin site? How will it be
maintained?
