I tend to disagree. The people who're most likely to read the FAQ are
those already considering either incorporating GC or using a GC'd language
in their work/project/etc. Yes, the FAQ should point out the advantages
and address some of the myths-- but it should also provide a consolidated
overview of the technology available (which I believe it is shaping up
to do nicely).
