just wanted to throw this back out there...

at SXSW i had proposed that we create a new category (we have 
code, news, etc.) called 'FAQ'...

that category would have the following properties:
- would not appear in the drop-down...
- would not appear as a category on the article submission page...
- would hold all 'about evolt' type stuff in convenient article formats...

now, links at the top of the page (like FAQ) or our submission style 
guide, or other related things, would live in that category...

whenever we would need to reference them, we'd link to them like 
any other article, but via the links we have in place...

some advantages:
- they fall into the new article process...
- they can be edited by all, approved by all, etc...
- no managing of static pages to worry about...
- slides right into our templates...
- searches can hit them...

i'm sure y'all can think of other benefits... anyway, there were 
enough other folks in the hotel room who seemed to agree that i 
thought i'd bring it up...
