I agree here. Not to mention for people like myself, I do the FAQ as a very
minor sideline and while I want for the thing to be read and serve it's
function I don't really have the *time* to convert it from it's current format.
I picked the format I did as a comprimise between being easy to read and easy
for me to maintain it.

Until one of these formats being suggested can appeal to the easy to
maintain factor I am very dis-interested in them.
