It reads nicely. The paragraph starting with "The 1.7.35 release is expected..." needs a tweak as soon as 1.7.35 goes release, of course, but otherwise it's really neat. The problem is this: The source of the file is not in HTML but in XML, see https://sourceware.org/viewvc/src/winsup/doc/faq-setup.xml?view=log Any problem to rework for XML and sending as unified patch against the latest version of the file from CVS?
