I'm finally getting around to making that FAQ

[Archie Cobbs]

Hi David,

There was lots of discussion on amber-dev but it may be hard to track down.
I am happy to dig up some of those threads and will follow up in a few days
with some links for you.

Thanks a lot for putting this FAQ together! I think it will be a great
resource to have.
