Thanks for your interest.
You point out some obvious shortcomings in the current FAQ; any patches fixes
are very much appreciated. Ideally you offer them in _small_ chunks. Either
on this list, or as MR's on Salsa. Or just text suggestions in email here.
Any format goes, basically, afaic.
I did not notice a registration request on Salsa from you. Are you talking
about registering as a salsa user, of about getting some access for your salsa
useraccount to the debian-doc space on salsa? In the first case, I can not
really help and you'll likely have to wait for the salsa admins.
Anyway: Thanks again!
Bye,
Joost
