New GlassFish FAQs

Hello,

Just wanted to let you know that I've added and updated quite a few FAQs
on the GlassFish wiki. The list is below. Most of the additions and
changes were made to the User FAQ; a few others were made to the
Developer FAQ (which unfortunately has had little to no activity since
it was launched!), and to the Wiki FAQ.

Most of the information was culled from recent threads on the mailing
lists/forum. Hopefully I got things right, but by all means please
correct anything I missed or misrepresented and also add any
enhancements of your own.

Which reminds me. So much great information is shared here and it would
be good to capture it in the FAQs. If you discover a solution or provide
one and feel it's a good candidate for an FAQ, please add it! These FAQs
are community resources and the more contributors the better. The main
page of each FAQ also has a wishlist section (i.e., questions for which
answers are still needed, especially for the User FAQ), so that's
another way to contribute.

And as always, any feedback about the GlassFish FAQs in general -- Are
they helpful? Do you use them? What would make them better? -- is most
welcome.

Thanks!
Gail
