Import most of the FAQ entries from our old web site. A few outdated
questions have been omitted, many of the imported ones were updated in
one way or another, and the order of the development-related questions
has been changed. Also, the phrasing of some questions has been
modified (just to make the headings shorter).
For the record, this is the original list of questions from the old web
site:
