What I like about the https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/ is that you can 
toggle between [ Split HTML / Single HTML ]. The Single HTML you can download 
and read on your Kindle or other e-reader device, offline, as compared to 
having to buy a separate computer for referencing the [OpenBSD] manual as 
someone else in the thread suggested.

Would it be possible to offer http://www.openbsd.org/faq/ as a single HTML as 
well? I guess the guide available as a single HTML would be more sensible than 
many users having to buy new machines for referencing (hint: they can donate 
the money saved to OpenBSD, how about that?).

What I'd add to the FreeBSD Handbook (hence, advise for the OpenBSD FAQ) is, 
that the HTML links would be relative, so you can truly use it offline.

Thanks for your work
