This is nearly perfect!  I would change the answer to the second
question to:

"Would you like to volunteer to keep an FAQ up to date in the CVS?"

after all, at the speed at which mythtv is changing (and all the related
drivers and dependencies) it would probably have to be appended weekly
if not daily.

just my 2 cents (which are probably not even worth that much)
