So, you are talking about grouping the current index with some
sections?.  I think that at least we should take a look to that proposal!.
So, please send another version of the hacker's guide applying such idea,
before I begin to convert it to <div>.

Could you add the task and assign it to me? I might have time next week, but not right now.

I think that the FAQ page will not need such grouping due to it is not so
large. Isn't it?.

It'll probably be much larger by the time we get into a stable phase. But ATM there shouldn't be a need for it.

Well, we can say something like: "install UFT-8 as default in your
system", and they will ask or read any documentation proper for their
operating system.

We could also provide links to general-purpose articles explaining the how and why. That's one of the things I often miss from public FAQs. Linking also means we'll have less to maintain and translate.
