If you're just saying a community FAQ should included both worlds, I 
agree.  But if you're saying we shouldn't try to document official Sun 
release information, just because it doesn't really belong in a 
community FAQ, I would disagree.  Until Sun catches up, we should try to 
reduce the confusion, if we can.
