: Good points.  I think it would also be useful if the FAQ was at least partially referenced.  It currently throws around a lot of claims of consensus reached without pointing to the record of that consensus.  Discussions here tend to go the same way - "We had consensus" "No we didn't" "The 'consensus' is just a manufactured end-run around the rules" etc.  Having the history bit of the FAQ link to discussions / RFCs / straw polls etc would at least help people like me who are new to the debate to get their heads around it.
