I'm in the process of porting a few of the small changes that have been applied to bleadperl in the meantime to a github fork of your repository. When I'm done, I'll copy those merged files into bleadperl. In the long run, I wonder whether it might be worthwhile to move the faq maintenance back to the core repository. I doubt people would be very opposed to giving you commit access to that (and in github times you could always use your own fork and send pull requests occasionally).
