Perhaps.  But a non-user of a tool doesn't make a very good FAQ
coordinator.

Well that's certainly interesting.  Tivoli/IBM doesn't own the content
from this list, so I'm going to question what specific permission you
were able to obtain from them if any.  Copyrights are maintained by
individual contributors.  If you want to take list content and post it
to a web page, to do things correctly, you would need permission of
the author.

Are you familiar with this FAQ? 
http://www.templetons.com/brad/copymyths.html

or this one?

I'm sorry if I haven't welcomed you with open arms, but you're new to
the community, talking of making commercial revenue with the works of
others, and you'd like someone to make your life easier by sending you
the archives of the list in a convenient format so you can plunder it
for content on your site to generate ad revenue? 

Did I miss anything?

I think you need to be very very careful about copyright on such a
site.  If you're using anything someone has written as part of a FAQ
without their express permission, and are generating click through or
ad revenue from it, you're  gonna have BIG problems from a lot of
angry people.
