But I don't see any reason not to put it in wine-doc-html.tar.gz or 
wine-doc-txt.tar.gz. The idea of these tar files is so that one can get 
all the Wine documentation with just one download and the FAQ is part of 
the documentation.

Also I don't see any evidence that the FAQ is changing faster than the 
rest of the documentation and is more perishable. So I see no reason to 
cast it apart.
