one of the reasons I have shifted from linux to OpenBSD is the quality
of the man pages (far better on OpenBSD).
I don't see the point of "HOWTOs" you just need well written man pages
with examples. I would rather have one standard set of docs with the
system.
Maybe the FAQ should be shipped in man page form as well?

the trouble with being punctual is that nobody's there to appreciate
it.
