I found it most interesting that just prior to this posting (to the
LFS list), in the mailbox I hive such postings off into, was one
highlighting an issue with a BLFS topic (emacs).

This suggests that in the minds of many people, LFS and BLFS are a
single entity (indeed, how many folk stop after just following the 
LFS guidelines ?) and in some ways the agglomeration of the various
strands under the new single-point-of-initial-contact site surely 
reinforces such a view, along with the other benefits.

My preference would thus be for a "best of both worlds" option with
the individual FAQs to be manitained for those who know (or think they
know) where they should be looking, and a combined single document
FAQ, pulling together all the others in one place, made available for
downloading and for "general topic" searches throughout the LFS "realm".
